À propos de ce contenu audio

Episode 4 of Rise to Command: Conversations with Black Brass examines how African American officers navigated leadership, ethics, and institutional loyalty during a period of profound change in the U.S. Army.


Through the experiences of Lieutenant General Arthur Gregg, Lieutenant General Emmett Paige Jr., and Major General Charles Bussey, this episode explores different pathways to command—logistics, communications, and public service—and the personal costs of leadership in an institution not designed for their success.


Drawing from first-hand oral histories, Dr. Isaac W. Hampton II reflects on how these officers balanced quiet excellence, self-determination, and, at times, principled critique while remaining deeply committed to the military profession. Their stories reveal leadership shaped not by protest, but by presence, precision, and conscience.
