On America's racial terrorism, 'silence has condemned us'

Clip: 4/13/2017 | 3m 23s

Bryan Stevenson's Brief but Spectacular take on race and justice in America.

“I don’t think we’re free in America,” says attorney Bryan Stevenson, who sees an unwillingness to talk about the terrors of slavery and other racial-based violence as a continuing burden. But he also sees strength -- in the descendants of those who endured slavery. Stevenson, executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative, offers his Brief but Spectacular take on race and justice in America.
