Radio's Jesse Lee Peterson endorses inner-city education-reformer Rabbi Nahum Shifren for State Senator from L.A.

Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson calls for voters to overcome race and religious prejudices to vote for a person's character. Peterson endorses 26th District Senate candidate, inner-city teacher Rabbi Nahum Shifren, terming him, "like a brother to me!" Rabbi Shifren is widely recognized as L.A.'s modern day Sidney Portier-type teacher as in "To Sir, With Love" - who works to save minority students from a harsh society and broken educational system.

The Beverly Hills Courier publisher, Clifton Smith, emcees the occasion.
