green party activist and one-time progressive firebrand in the arizona senate has had over the course of her kroob wst the a little hard to know where she's coming from in her latest political incarnation, but her brand of renegade politics is fundamentally a dead end in ways that should be appreciated, even by those of us who would think that the democratic party would benefit from a bit more. and the argument is, no one knows where kyrsten sinema stands. at least joe manchin is saying, this is where i stand. this is my top line. this is what i won't go beyond. >> and let's be honest. washington, d.c. understands characters like joe manchin. he's transactional. he's wheeling and dealing. he's making a thing that is in his head best for him politically and best for his state financially. sinema is a much more sort of elliptical figure. you can't quite pin down what she wants. but with manchin, you know what he's after. the guy absolutely transparent about it. and it harkens back to a kind of older washington. not necessarily -- not

thomas university, and the author of "rethinking the black freedom movement," so good to see you. my goodness. so the nra is a powerful force. that, everyone knows. but how did it become such an influential political player? >> well, it's actually a fascinating story, fredricka, because people think of the nra in terms of its modern incarnation, but in reality, the organization was formed in 1871, and for most of its history was really concerned with responsible gun ownership. it was founded by two union war veterans who in the aftermath of the war recognized the need for americans to be more familiar with guns and the responsible stewardship of guns and marksmanship coming out of the experience of the civil war. it really begins to change in the 1960s in the aftermath of a wave of political assassinations including the killing of john f. kennedy, the assassination of martin luther king, and then the number of riots that sweep the nation which are fueled by gun
