In this special “on the road” edition of Civil Discord, Jaffee reports on two significant political developments as he travels through Alabama and Mississippi. The first is the ongoing strike, now exceeding 100 days, by the United Mine Workers in Brookwood, Alabama against the Warrior Met corporation. The second segment takes us to Jackson Mississippi, home of the Jackson Women’s Health Organization (JWHO, aka “the Pink House”) which is at the center of the upcoming case to be heard on abortion by the Supreme Court. Jaffee interviews one of the co-organizers, Derenda Hancock, of the Pink House Defenders, a volunteer organization of escorts for women seeking the services of the JWHO in the face of anti-abortion protesters outside the facility.
