That's when we knew something was off with Bill Cosby | Ben Jealous

  • サマリー

  • Ben Jealous has given thousands of speeches as an American civil rights leader but few would guess that he had a childhood stutter that still defines his patterns of speech. As a surfer, he says he tends to ride his words and sentences like a wave. When he was a kid, Bill Cosby humiliated his stammer which left Ben's family stunned at the contrast between Cosby's public and personal behavior.

    Take listen to Ben favourite things on this bonus b-roll episode.

    Ben Jealous

    Three words to describe America: Big, beautiful, and divided.

    Favorite landscape: Big Sur. Yosemite

    Family background: My father’s family arrived in Salem, Massachusetts, around 400 years ago, coming from England. My mom’s family has been here for around the same amount of time. They were among the earliest settlers and slaves in Virginia. One of my ancestors came on one of 17 slave ships from Madagascar, and she was most likely a pirate—16 out of 17 of those ships were piloted by known European pirates.
