Tuesday on Political Rewind, the U.S. 2020 Census represents a huge undertaking with significant consequences for funding and democratic representation across the country.

And now, the Census faces additional challenges from an ongoing worldwide public health crisis. We discussed the latest on the census with our panel.

And, civil rights icon Andrew Young joined us to discuss the life and achievements of Dr. Joseph Lowery, a leader of the moment for civil rights and close ally of Martin Luther King.

Lowery died Friday at the age of 98.

Panelists:

Lori Geary – Host, Georgia Gang

Tharon Johnson – Democratic Strategist

Andrew Young – Civil Rights Activist and Former Atlanta Mayor
