April 24, 2017: Hour 2

In hour two of Here & Now's April 24, 2017 full broadcast, we speak with Jon Ossoff, the Democratic candidate in the race for Georgia's 6th Congressional District. He'll face Republican Karen Handel in a June 20 runoff that's drawn the money and attention of both national parties. Also, overnight masked workers guarded by snipers removed a prominent Confederate monument in the city of New Orleans. We discuss the fallout with longtime New Orleans journalist Tim Morris. And former President Barack Obama re-enters the public eye today, speaking at an event at the University of Chicago. We hear the latest from NPR White House correspondent Tamara Keith. You can read and hear more at hereandnow.org, follow us on Twitter and join the conversation on Facebook and Tumblr.
