The pandemic has upended the lives and careers of America's restaurateurs -- among them celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson. The proprietor of Harlem's Red Rooster has directed his efforts to helping those in need, particularly people of color. It's a community he celebrates in his new book, "The Rise: Black Cooks and the Soul of American Food." He joins Walter Isaacson to discuss his journey from Ethiopia to Sweden and the U.S., and how a restaurant can become more than just a place to eat.
