This week, David revisits an inspiring interview with Jerrick Lewis, nephew of the late Congressman John Lewis and leader of the John R. Lewis Legacy Institute. Jerrick discusses the Institute's mission to advance equity, promote community engagement, and preserve his uncle's legacy through various initiatives like literacy programs and health awareness campaigns. He also shares personal reflections on John Lewis's character and the powerful impact of his work.
We'll be back with a regular episode next week.

Send us a question:
We take a bit of time each week to answer questions from our audience about Alabama politics — or Alabama in general. If you have a question about a politician, a policy, or a trend — really anything — you can shoot us an email at apwproducer@gmail.com or with this form.
You can also send it to us on Facebook and Twitter. Or by emailing us a voice recording to our email with your question, and we may play it on air.
Either way, make sure you include your name (first name is fine) and the city or county where you live.
