Description
In this episode, we pay tribute to the late Judge Nathaniel R. Jones of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Judge Jones left a tremendous legacy of social justice, civil rights, and mentorship to a generation of lawyers who have since went on to accomplish great things. In honoring Judge Jones, we are first joined by the Senior Senator from Ohio, Sherrod Brown, as he discusses the resolution that has been introduced to honor the Judge’s legacy. Next, we speak with Donald Remy, Chief Operations Officer of the NCAA, on the profound impact that the Judge had on his life and the lives of others. Lastly, Karyn A. Temple, the former 13th Register of Copyrights and Director of the U.S. Copyright Office and current Global General Counsel for the Motion Picture Association, gives us a sense of Judge Jones’ personality and what it was like to work with him. The host for this episode is Clint Odom, NUL Senior Vice President of Policy & Advocacy. From the National Urban League, For The Movement discusses persistent policy, social, and civil rights issues affecting communities of color.
