8:45Now PlayingColin Powell’s professional life inspired African American young people who wanted to be in the military and foreign service. According to BNC host Del Walters, “He made the ROTC cool” before going on to earn the Presidential Medal of Freedom–twice.
Powell survived three major wars only to be taken down by COVID-19, the most powerful killer of American in more than a century. More people have died from COVID-19 than all of the wars we have fought in the 20th century.
Walters sits down with political analyst Quentin Jiles, former political director for Priorities USA Kristal Knight and “World News Tonight” co-host Nayyera Haq to discuss the prolific life of America’s first Black Secretary of State.
All this and more on “DC Today.”
