At the top of our agenda this week: How Sheila Johnson, America’s first Black female billionaire and CEO of Salamander Hotels and Resorts, is opening doors at the highest level for African-Americans in the hospitality industry.

Innisbrook’s director of golf, Rodney Green, and the resort’s executive chef, Andrè Halston, are two men in charge here and share their stories of reaching the top of their profession.

Plus, Rapper Ice T explores the meaning of hip hop in black culture, American culture and world culture as it is explored in his new documentary, Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap.

It’s happening right now on “Washington Watch.”
