After the video of George Floyd's death went viral, discussions of racism and police brutality have taken hold of our country over the past few weeks.
Protests have turned violent. Property has been destroyed. And the police response has been as aggressive as ever.
But what are we supposed to make of all this?
Does systemic racism really exist?
If the police do go too far, why don't they face consequences?
Why are people rioting, and is this a reasonable response?
And finally, what's the media's part in all of this?
We'll discuss all these questions, and you might even learn something new about Charles Manson in the process.
