This week, we discuss Pennsylvania becoming the first state in the country to limit the power of its Governor as a result of pandemic-related emergency declarations. We also discuss the Philadelphia District Attorney Democratic primary race between incumbent and progressive Larry Krasner and his ill-fated establishment challenger Carlos Vega. We revisit our very first interview with Stephanie Webb about ‘Harriet’ starring Cynthia Erivo.
