На дебатах республиканцев-кандидатов на пост президент США сенатор Берни Сандерс и экс-госсекретарь Хиллари Клинтон прокомментировали расовый вопрос в стране. Расшифровку дебатов дает ABC News. Сандерс сообщил, что поддерживает активистов движения Black Lives Matter, которое выступает против насилия в отношении афроамериканцев. "Вы не знаете, что это такое A young lady comes up to me and says you don't understand what police do in certain black communities. 'You don't understand the degree to which we are terrorized. I'm not just talking about the shootings we have seen that we have to end, I'm talking about everyday activities where police officers are bullying people. You don't know what it's like to be living in a ghetto and to be poor. You don't know what it's like to be hassled when you walk down the street or get dragged out of a car.' I believe as a nation in the year 2016, we must be firm in making it clear: We will end institutional racism and reform a broken criminal justice system."
