Summary

Thirty years after his confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court, Justice Clarence Thomas continues to have a profound influence on American law and culture—evident again with last week's landmark rulings. A new book, "Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words," gives readers access to hours of the exclusive content from the justice himself. Building on the success of a PBS documentary by the same name, the book chronicles Thomas' amazing life and includes unreleased conversations with his wife Ginni Thomas. Filmmaker Michael Pack, who produced the "Created Equal" documentary, and Mark Paoletta, a personal friend and lawyer who worked with Thomas during his Supreme Court confirmation, join "The Daily Signal Podcast" to share their favorite stories from the book.
