 This 1996 video from C-Span Book TV’s archives brought back great memories. At the time, I was deputy bureau chief of ABC News’s Washington Bureau. Skip and Cornel had stopped by the building to meet with Ted Koppel, then anchor of Nightline.

Because I knew them from our Harvard ties (Cornel is my classmate), I went upstairs to say hello. One thing led to another and they asked me to facilitate their presentation for Vertigo Books that evening in downtown DC so they wouldn’t have to make a speech. As you can see, neither of them really needs a facilitator but it was fun to be a part of the evening.
