1:17Now PlayingRussell's guest shares a devastating piece of his family history, his father, a longtime NAACP president, chose to build their home on a street where no black families had lived, despite neighbors warning him he wasn't wanted there. Just after his third birthday, that house was firebombed in the middle of the night with a Molotov cocktail, and the police response amounted to nothing. His father's answer wasn't bitterness but resolve, buying a shotgun to protect his family and teaching his children what it means to stand up for your own freedom. It's a raw reflection on reckoning honestly with the past without being consumed by it.
