An Extraordinary Journey From Segregation to Space with guest Ret. Maj Gen. Charles Bolden

Tara takes on the countdown towards a second government shutdown over Trump's border wall and his disingenuous fight on immigration. The leadership of the state of Virginia continues to wallow in chaos after Governor Ralph Northam's blackface scandal. And the world's richest man, Jeff Bezos is caught up in a blackmail scandal with the owner of the National Enquirer. Switching gears, Tara’s guest this week is former astronaut and Marine fighter pilot, Maj Gen Charles Bolden. A true trailblazer, Gen. Bolden flew four space shuttle missions and served as the first African American administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from 2009 to 2017.
