Ken Chanalt's Journey and 110's Mission

Ken Chanalt, former CEO of American Express, discusses his upbringing, including the impact of the civil rights movement on his life. He highlights the importance of equal opportunity and shares his involvement in 110, an organization focused on upskilling and advancing 1 million Black Americans into family-sustaining jobs.
