Civil Rights 50th Anniversary, Prisons and Mentally Ill

We examine the decision facing the Supreme Court on the issue of affirmative action; look back at some of the key moments of the civil rights movement in 1963 with historian Taylor Branch; and visit a Chicago jail to look at the moral and financial costs of relying on prisons to care for the mentally ill.
