KQED's "Brown Under Fire"

About This Item

KQED's "Brown Under Fire," reporter Spencer Michels interviews Speaker Willie L. Brown, Jr. on topics relating to: what media has referred to as the "Gang of Five," a group of dissident democrats that tried to wrest power from the Speaker in 1988; Brown's income outside of the legislative power; extracurricular activities outside of the speakership; and the transition from how Spencer Michels describes Brown, as a "radical lawyer full of idealism" in the early 1960s to how he is perceived today.
