Black Lung and the Law

Attorney Tim MacDonnell says his clinic’s clients are some of the hardest working, most dedicated people he has ever met. And MacDonnell says, it is because of that dedication that those people are now, "dying by inches."

We examine the work of the Virginia-based Black Lung Legal Clinic.

Guest:
Timothy MacDonnell, J.D. - Lt. Colonel, U.S. Army (Retired).  Former Legal Advisor to the Iraqi High Tribunal, Baghdad, Iraq.   Former Special Assistant United States Attorney.  Current Director of the Black Lung Legal Clinic, Washington and Lee University.
