Charleston Killings Hit a Nerve in Los Angeles

Hosted by

Since the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Americans have engaged in a national conversation about race and policing. Now, that conversation is expanding. Last week’s massacre in Charleston has exposed racial wounds deeper than police abuse. The violent racism that appears to have motivated a gunman to attack Emanuel First AME Church has Americans from Charleston to LA trying to come to terms with what it means for race relations in 2015. We hear from Angelenos in this special live broadcast of Which Way, LA?
