NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson and former Obama White House communications director Jen Palmieri join Morning Joe to down the historic win by Democrat Scott Colom in Mississippi’s Senate race. Johnson connects the result to Mississippi’s civil-rights history, saying the movement was “never about an individual, but about the cause.” Palmieri shares part of her interview with Colom for her docuseries ‘Long Play: Winning the South,’ where he describes how going without attention and resources kept him close to voters. They break down how local organizing built momentum and what Colom’s win could mean for the South.
