Melissa Harris-Perry

On the debut of the Melissa Harris-Perry show on MSNBC last week, Melissa champions new thinking around reproductive rights. She was one of the voices of influence that led to a Virginia reversal of a suggested bill surrounding ultrasounds less than one week later. Harris-Perry shares her enthusiasm for a weekend show, "A big part of the vision is to have the additional room to think through what’s important through the course of a week, to build what I would think of as a thesis looking back on the four or five important things and seeing how they fit together, what they tell us about where we are.” Click here to learn more about the Melissa Harris-Perry show on MSNBC.
