Some of the people responsible for the beating of DeAndre Harris last summer in Charlottesville are finally being brought to justice. Nicole welcomes photojournalist Zach D. Roberts, who captured the beating on film, back to the show to bring us up to date on what's going on. He also fills us in on his annual trek to the NRA convention. Plus, as the new documentary RBG is opening around the country, Nicole speaks with its Producers/Directors Betsy West and Julie Cohen.
With more white supremacist rallies scheduled this weekend and going forward, how do we deal with them? Do you go and join in the counter protest or stay home and (relatively) safe? And how do you explain what's happening to your kids? Dr. Ava Siegler, author of How Do I Explain This to My Kids?: Parenting in the Age of Trump joins in to discuss the last question.
Photojournalist Zach D. Roberts caught the beating of De'Andre Harris on film, and joins in to talk about what he witnessed in Charlottesville on Saturday. Read his account, see his photos and watch his interview with De'Andre Harris here. And see Greg Palast's coverage here. And it's Thursday, so Howie Klein is here to tell us about the latest Blue America endorsed candidates and more politics in this very strange time in American history.
Each Tuesday, GottaLaff joins in to talk about the news of the week. And if ever there was a day we needed some laughs, it's today in the wake of the weekend's Charlottesville protests. Both Laffy and I have a problem with the term "Alt-Right" as a normalizing way to identify white supremacists, Nazis, Ku Klux Klan members and the rest of the racists that went into Charlottesville Friday night and Saturday.
