  • Summary

  • In this episode, we will hear about one of the most inspiring and daring escapes in history. The story of Robert Smalls is one that should have been made into a movie long ago. The man stole a Confederate gunboat and sailed it, full of runaway slaves, to freedom. He would later become one of the first African Americans to serve in Congress.

    In our True Heroes segment, I will introduce you to Daniel Inouye. His service in World War II was absolutely one of the most heroic and awe-inspiring you will ever hear about. Severely wounded, he helped his company take a key hilltop, paving the way for the Allied sweep though Italy as we pushed the Germans back towards their homeland.
