Another installment in our leadership lessons series, this time we take a look at Colin L. Powell's "It Worked For Me"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The City College ROTC Program, where the late Gen. Colin L. Powell got his start more than 60 years ago, will yield 16 cadet commissions into the U.S. Army this June. Of this cohort of 2022 graduates from across CUNY, more than 50% were born abroad and became U.S. citizens, enabling them to serve in the nation's military. Hear from Lt. Cmdr. LaShell Y. Davis, Professor of Military Science at CCNY and director of the CUNY ROTC program, based at CCNY, about the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) to today's U.S. Army and her perspective on working at one of America's most diverse campuses. The conversation, with CCNY President Vincent Boudreau, stretches from the Vietnam-interrupted history of ROTC at the college to changing opportunities and horizons for current cadets, including internships; a new military talent-management emphasis on resumes, interviews, skills and preferences in matching personnel with branches and units of the armed services; and the advent of U.S. Cyber Command. Davis and Boudreau are joined by Lt. Gen. Samuel Ebbesen (Ret.), a 1961 CCNY graduate who began his career, and a lifelong friendship with the late Gen. Powell, in ROTC at the college. Ebbesen describes ROTC of his day and an elite group, the Pershing Rifles, that he and Powell joined and that continues today. Currently, Ebbesen is a member of the board of visitors at CCNY's Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership. Host: CCNY President Vincent Boudreau Guests: Lt. Comm. Lashell Y. Davis, Professor of Military Science at CCNY and director of the CUNY-wide ROTC program; Lt. Gen. Samuel Ebbesen (Ret.), CCNY Class of 1961 Recorded: May 23, 2022
We discuss the 1906 Brownsville, TX Affair. We also place Colin L. Powells distinguished career/legacy in the context of the System of Racism White Supremacy being in full affect. We discuss the anti-black mistreatment that black veterans within the U.S. Armed forces fell victim to and or had to endure and overcome. We use clips of Neely Fuller Jr & Maya Angelo to add context.
11.05.2021 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: October job numbers report is out, and apparently, it beat expectations and contends the country closer to full employment. So what's all this about a failing economy? I spoke with the Council of Economic Advisers Chair to break down the numbers and let us know if our economy is booming or not. Opening arguments have begun in the trial of the three men accused of hunting down Ahmaud Arbery as he jogged through a south Georgia neighborhood. The defense laid down its case. Saying, Ahmaud could still be alive if he just answered the questions of the white men chasing him. We'll have a recap of what happened today. Friends, family, and former colleagues gathered today at Washington's National Cathedral to honor Colin L. Powell, the first Black chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and later served as the first Black secretary of state. We'll tell you about two men who have been exonerated. One man spent nearly 20 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. The other had his charges dismissed after his arresting officer was caught on tape planting evidence. Howard University President Dr. Wayne Fredrick just finished up his state of the university address calling for an end to the student protest. We'll tell you about a Georgia school where students excel in academia through holistic and STEAM-related practices in our Education Matters segment. And a Crazy Ass White Person gets owned, thrown, and fired. You'll see what happened during San Diego's board of supervisors meeting, where an anti-vaxxer thought he would be able to get away with a racist, sexist rant. Well, one board supervisor was ready for all the smoke. #RolandMartinUnfiltered partners: Nissan | Check out the ALL NEW 2022 Nissan Frontier! As Efficient As It Is Powerful!
This week Rick is at the end of a very long business trip in the South. His body has taken a beating and he's missing the creature comforts of home. L.O has a Covid scare at his son's school, luckily he's negative. Mack has been in a bit of a rut, but after meeting with some of his like-minded business friends he realizes he needs to raise his personal bar to achieve new heights. Vin is having a quiet week, dealing with some health concerns but overall things are looking up Next, we discuss whether or not the Biden Administration, Kamala Harris, and the rest of the Democrats are missing in action? During the election, many Democrats, including Biden and Harris courted the BIPOC community with promises of addressing important issues in the Black community especially. Unfortunately, 10 months in, we are still waiting for answers. Lastly, we honor the late Colin L Powell and discuss his long career full of many firsts for the African American community. This and much more including kinky bears, racist holidays, and a listener letter on the latest episode of Decoding40.

Here are The 13 Rules of Leadership accounting to The Late General Colin L. Powell (1937-2021)
A giant on the world stage, Gen. Colin L. Powell found his calling in the ROTC program as an undergraduate at The City College of New York. Powell led the Cadet Corps on the Harlem campus, and upon graduating with a Geology degree in 1958, received his commission as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army. The first Black American appointed to a series of U.S. government leadership roles culminating in Secretary of State, Powell also spent the last several decades of his life deeply involved with the school he called the center of his life. As news of Powell's passing circles the world, this episode captures the tributes of his closest colleagues at CCNY: President Vincent Boudreau, Vice President Dee Dee Mozeleski, and Dean Andrew Rich of the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership. Joining them is Trevor Houser, a 2006 graduate and an alumnus of the inaugural cohort of Colin Powell Fellows, a program exemplifying the visionary pathways that Powell initiated and that today inspire a legacy of student success across CCNY. Host: CCNY President Vincent Boudreau Guests: Andrew Rich, Richard J. Henley and Susan L. Davis Dean of CCNY's Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership; Trevor Houser, Partner, Rhodium Group, CCNY Class of 2006, graduate of CCNY's inaugural cohort of Colin Powell Fellows; Dee Dee Mozeleski, Vice President of CCNY's Office of Institutional Advancement and Communications, Executive Director of the Foundation for City College, Senior Adviser to the President of City College.

General Colin Powell, who passed away this week, is remembered throughout the national security community as a distinguished public servant and American statesman. As the first Black chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the first Black Secretary of State, Powell broke barriers, shaped history, and reset the rules for how American military force should be deployed in the post-Vietnam era. In honor of his legacy and impact, we are joined this week by Jack Rives, who served alongside General Powell when he was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Jack Rives reflects on Powell's legacy, his tremendous impact on the national security community across both sides of the aisle, and pays tribute to a man of great honor, achievement, and character.

Colin Powell, the first Black US secretary of state whose leadership in several Republican administrations helped shape American foreign policy in the last years of the 20th century and the early years of the 21st, has died from complications from Covid-19, his family said on Facebook. He was 84. "General Colin L. Powell, former U.S. Secretary of State and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, passed away this morning due to complications from Covid 19," the Powell family wrote on Facebook, noting he was fully vaccinated. Powell had multiple myeloma, a cancer of plasma cells that suppresses the body's immune response, as well as Parkinson's, Peggy Cifrino, Powell's longtime chief of staff, confirmed to CNN. Even if fully vaccinated against Covid-19, those who are immunocompromised are at greater risk from the virus. "We have lost a remarkable and loving husband, father, grandfather and a great American," the family said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
