Steve Osunsami Abc News

He began his career at WREX-TV in Rockford, Illinois, WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and at KOMO-TV in Seattle prior to becoming a correspondent for ABC News in 1997. His work has taken him all over the nation, from covering riots in Baltimore and Ferguson Missouri to the 2000 United States presidential election recount in Florida, as well as the shooting deaths of nine black parishioners at the Charleston church shooting in 2015.

He was the subject of political debate after he was one of many African-American reporters who showed emotion live on the air on the night of the election of the nation’s first black president, Barack Obama. He also covered the Killing of Rayshard Brooks and the Killing of Ahmaud Arbery.

Steve wrote and hosted the ABC podcast “Soul of a Nation: Tulsa’s Buried Truth,” which explores the 1921 Tulsa race massacre via archival audio and conversations with historians. Talking on his personal connection to the project, Steve said, “It shocks me, as a high school and college-educated Black American, that until recently, the details of the Tulsa massacre have escaped me, and I think that’s a shame. It says a ton about the way we, as Americans, record history that’s racist and ugly. We like to give it the silent treatment. And like a fight with someone in your family, simply ignoring the injury never makes it go away.”

An essay by Steve was featured in the book, “My America: What My Country Means to Me, by 150 Americans from All Walks of Life,” edited by Hugh Downs.
