Episode 9: African-Americans Deserve A Nelson Mandela, Not an Al Sharpton
In my recent interview with Fox News correspondent Jennifer Griffin, we discussed her experience as a journalist in South Africa covering the end of apartheid and the release of Nelson Mandela after 27 years in prison.

Sadly though, Mandela's memory serves as a stark contrast to many of the so called "leaders" in today's African-American community today. It's Martin Luther King Jr. Day, so in the wake of the Ferguson riots and recent violence against police, I'll ask where are the civil rights heroes of today? Because African-Americans deserve a Neson Mandela, not an Al Sharpton. Click here to listen to the full podcast episode.
