Becoming Justice Thomas | 2. Smiling Faces

Slow Burn - Podcast készítő Slate Podcasts - Szerdák

Clarence Thomas went to Yale Law School because he thought it was a good fit for his left-wing politics.

It also drew him to a group of conservatives who helped sharpen his political beliefs. Want more Slow Burn?
