And then around 2009, in the middle of that crisis, I moved to Atlanta from Los Angeles, my birth city of Los Angeles, moved to Atlanta at the recommendation of Ambassador Andrew Young.
John Hope BryantHOST
And I bought a place in Atlanta, which also, by the way, basically I sold it for double what I paid for it.
John Hope BryantHOST
A little less than that, but about double.

Kelly Carter JacksonHOST
Andrew Young become the mayor of Atlanta or David Dinkins or Harold Washington in Chicago, like not only are these leaders coming into office, but they're doing something that that happens also in Reconstruction, which is they're changing the game for everyone, not just their black constituents.

Walter TurnerHOST
Is it always a problem from your research that when African Americans become Involved in international affairs, it becomes a bit, what's the word we say, dicey, whether it's Malcolm X and his visits to Africa, whether it's situations like Donald McHenry, who booted out for his statements, or Andrew Young, I believe, about statements.
Walter TurnerHOST
Is it always dicey when African-Americans get involved? beyond the borders, international affairs, or is that too much of a generalization?
