Ebony Towers. Henry Louis Gates journeys through the US's political and corporate establishment to meet African-Americans who, like himself, have joined the ranks of this eminent field, in the third of a four-part series. In Washington DC he interviews Secretary of State Colin Powell , while in New York he plays chess with Maurice Ashley , the first-ever African-American grandmaster. Russell Simmons 's popularisation of hip hop is another unlikely success story but, despite the growing black middle-class, Gates laments that many African-Americans are still living in poverty.
