When Staci Green's mother was killed by a speeding driver in 2020, Staci was filled with grief, and rage; she wanted the driver, a woman named Nikia Cherry, to pay dearly for her crime.

The rock 'n' roller shares an enthusiasm for model trains, and music, with big-band leader Jools Holland. So, when the two decided to record jazz classics from the 1930s and '40s, they were definitely on the same track.
Rock 'n' roller Rod Stewart and big-band leader Jools Holland share an enthusiasm for model trains, and music. So, when the two decided to get together to make an album of jazz classics from the 1930s and '40s, they were definitely on the same track. But the 79-year-old rocker tells correspondent Mark Phillips that performing old swing-era hits doesn't mean he's slowing down.
In 1917 in Houston, where the all-Black 24th Infantry Regiment was stationed, 110 soldiers were convicted following a race riot; 19 were sentenced to death and hanged. More than a century later, the Army has moved to make amends.
In 1917, at an Army training camp in Houston where members of the all-Black 24th Infantry Regiment were stationed, a series of run-ins with white police and a false rumor that Black soldiers were about to be attacked set off a race riot. One-hundred-and-ten soldiers, all Black, were convicted; 19 were sentenced to death and hanged. CBS News national security correspondent David Martin talks with families of the executed men, and with Army officials about its decision, more than a century later, to reverse all convictions and restore honor to the Black soldiers who suffered a miscarriage of justice.
Celebrated for romantic roles that earned him a nickname as "the Black Clark Gable," and for playing the swashbuckling Lando Calrissian in the "Star Wars" films, the actor admits it has been easier for him to be someone else than to be Billy Dee Williams.
The actor celebrated for romantic roles (such as in "Lady Sings the Blues") that earned him a nickname as "the Black Clark Gable," and who brought swashbuckling to his performance as Lando Calrissian in the "Star Wars" films, admits it has been easier to be someone else than to be Billy Dee Williams. He talks with Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz about his new memoir, "What Have We Here?: Portraits of a Life," and why the 86-year-old actor has always been – all evidence to the contrary – rather shy.
Our eighth president - the first born an American citizen - was a polished politician with out-there sideburns, best known for creating our two-party system, and presiding over the worst depression the U.S. had yet experienced.
Martin Van Buren was our eighth president and the first to be born an American citizen. But what was the polished politician with the out-there sideburns best known for? Besides creating our two-party system, how about a presidency that corresponded with the worst depression the U.S. had experienced up to that time? Correspondent Mo Rocca talks with historian Ted Widmer, whose biography aimed to make an obscure president less obscure; and visits Lindenwald, the Hudson Valley home in New York State where Van Buren spent the remainder of his life, which proved more successful than his time in the White House.
"Sunday Morning" looks back at historical events on this date.
Last year striking workers won more generous contracts from the Big Three automakers, making up for pay cuts taken during the Great Recession, and marking a comeback for the labor movement.
Last year unionized auto workers who walked out at the big three car makers won generous contracts, making up for pay cuts they'd taken during the Great Recession. It marked a comeback for the labor movement, and a notable achievement for United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain, who came up the ranks as an auto plant electrician, and still carries his grandfather's union pay stub in his pocket. CBS News chief election & campaign correspondent Robert Costa talks with Fain about the increase in public support for unions; and about efforts to organize auto workers in Southern states that are traditionally less friendly to unions.
In this excerpt from his new memoir, the veteran actor – whose roles have ranged from romantic leads to a swashbuckling "Star Wars" hero – writes about an early experience on stage.
