Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.) has been fighting for D.C. statehood since she was elected in the early 1990s. Before that, she was part of the civil rights movement.

Kojo interviewed Norton at an event hosted by WAMU and the D.C. Public Library in early January. Kojo and the congresswoman talked about statehood, current politics, and Norton’s friendship with Coretta Scott King.
