Regina Jones founded the SOUL newspaper in 1966 to cover Black culture including jazz, funk and gospel music, and later started her own publicity firm. She sits down with NPR alum and Code Switch correspondent Karen Grigsby Bates to talk about her career and preview the new documentary about her life, "Who the Hell Is Regina Jones?," which is also showing at the Pan African Film Festival.
