1972: Chisholm for President!

The Documentary Channel is showing a film about Shirley Chisholm's remarkable campaign for President in 1972. They don't make candidates like this any more -- or if they do, they are bankrolled out of the limelight. This film is an important contribution to the history of the era. And we miss the likes of Chisholm, Barbara Jordan, and those amazing progressives of the time.
