Colin Powell will be remembered in history as the first Black US national security advisor, the first Black military chief of staff and the first Black secretary of state. He was also the first military chief to speak Yiddish as a second language, and he loved surprising Jews with his skill. Powell not only spoke Yiddish. He had also assisted Jews in the time-honored tradition as a Shabbos goy—performing tasks on Saturday that religious Jews cannot perform for themselves, such as turning off lights, shutting down stoves, turning up air-conditionings. https://tinystash.undef.im/il/3VJ6owQgcjqpYTsNYLujDTshtWzZkc7HA7Yaj2E8eb1tocnJWApKmXyyoeApqyqoXq54uvqhzJoWWBPnoi9GAcuMX23gZqj1stoDX2F5o3DnZc.jpg
