WASHINGTON - On Martin Luther King Jr. Day a year ago, there were few hints of the tumultuous and devastating 12 months that would follow. No one envisioned then that 400,000 Americans would be dead from a disease that has disproportionately affected Black and low-income Americans and ravaged the economy. No one envisioned that the death of a Black man at the hands of police would spur huge protests and a nationwide reckoning with the legacy of racism. No one envisioned that an American president would be impeached for encouraging his followers to storm the U.S. Capitol to overturn a legal election.

heart," but you have this organization that you started that's entitled "the mission continues." let's start there. tell us about that. >> so what we're doing at the mission continues, we are working with hundreds of sve veterans around the country helping them come back and find a way to continue serving in communities across america. we're taking men and women like jeff hall who grew up in chicago with a family that had to survive based on donations from food banks who today, after a 20-year successful career in the navy, is actually helping run a food bank in boston, massachusetts. people like natalie williams who was a medic in the united states navy who today is actually working at st. louis children's hospital. >> so a lot of veterans will say, especially those who have endured or served in repeat tours of duty, it's hard to come back. >> yes. >> it's almost easier to go back. so what are some of your messages -- what helps them try and take that mission and that sense of mission and have it work for them at home?
