As the nation was reeling from the potential impeachment of Nixon, a lesser-known figure emerged to repair the country’s broken trust. Barbara Jordan—the first Black woman elected to Congress from the South, and self proclaimed “Inquisitor” —was heralded a hero after an impassioned line of questioning and her instrumental role in the Voting Rights Act of 1975. This feature length documentary explores her incredible legacy.
