"My father was a feminist from the day I was born; there was nothing his little girl couldn’t do. And he modeled that in his relationship with my mother."
Condoleezza tells the story of her unlikely path from a childhood growing up in one of the US's most segregated cities to a concert pianist to a Soviet expert who'd become the second female US secretary of state. She credits her parents ~ who were both teachers who saw education as the driver of opportunity ~ for raising her to rise up as a leader.
Condoleezza's father was a football coach + major fan. She grew up watching Alabama games on Saturday and Cleveland Browns games on Sunday. Hence, the NFL tapped the former secretary of state for an ad campaign featuring female fans...now, we want to see her be tapped as the league's commissioner!
