A Jolly Day With Mary, Part 2

Our conversation with Mary Jolley, former legislative assistant of the late Congressman Carl Elliott, concludes with a discussion of Elliott’s ouster from Congress in 1964, his defeat in the 1966 gubernatorial election and the gap between some of his public stands on civil rights and his personal beliefs. Jolley also shares how Elliott came to receive the first John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award and how he might feel about the politics today.
