Description
The death of George Floyd this spring, and the recent grand jury decision not to charge police officers with the killing of Breonna Taylor, have brought race relations in America to a boiling point, again.

Joining Katty and Carlos are Christina Greer, professor of political science at Fordham University, and the award winning South African journalist Justice Malala.
