Boston Globe editor Brian McGrory weighs in on coverage of protests in Minneapolis and the Trump administration’s attempts to lie their way out of another extrajudicial killing, and the media’s role in calling out those lies. Michael Curry sits on the national board of the NAACP and leads Massachusetts’ community health centers. He joins us to discuss ICE’s incursion into Minneapolis – where robust social and refugee/immigrant services turned it into a target by the federal government. And live from Minneapolis, we also hear from Leslie Redmond, former president of the Minneapolis NAACP. Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan on how local law enforcement in Minneapolis is on a collision course with federal agents, and local leaders can do to keep their communities safe.
