Protests and unrest in Minneapolis continued for a second night following the death of unarmed black man George Floyd at the hands of a white officer who was recorded kneeling on his neck as Floyd pleaded for air. The deadly incident came on the heels of another viral video from New York of a white woman threatening to call the cops on a black man to falsely accuse him of violent threats, and in the wake of the murder of Georgia man Ahmaud Arbery by a group of white vigilantes. To discuss, Emily Rooney was joined by Jabari Asim, former editor at the Washington Post and now an associate professor of writing at Emerson College and author of ‘We Can’t Breathe: On Black Lives, White Lies, And The Art Of Survival.
