33:52Now PlayingJustice Clarence Thomas sits down for his first-ever podcast interview with Senator Ted Cruz on Verdict.
In part one of this special episode, the Justice shares the extraordinary story of his life — from the dirt roads of Pinpoint, Georgia, and a childhood marked by fire, poverty, and a chamber pot, to being raised by the two greatest people he has ever known: his grandparents. He talks openly about the Irish nuns who shaped him, his near path to the priesthood, the anger that consumed him after Dr. King’s assassination, the night he nearly went too far in a riot, and the quiet moment in front of the Blessed Sacrament when he asked God to take the hate out of his heart.
This conversation is the perfect companion to Ted Cruz’s brand-new book, Going Further: The Incomparable Clarence Thomas, which hits shelves on August 25th. Pre-order now at goingfurther.com.
