derek chauvin and exploiting kaepernick for taking the knee and that is the fun house mirror of morality so to differentiate in terms of what we see as acceptable as part of human life but we need to drill down on and discuss. and with w this idea of appropriation that is a feature of this country there is a malcolm x postage stamp but when public enemy said in 1989 most of my heroes don't appear on stamps that was a true statement that the icons radicalism to get appropriated you can't make the country forget about welcome ask so what you do instead is appropriate and sell it back asas consumable everything to extract political canine so they don't bite at the system treating people unfairly. there has been that effort as well. t nancy pelosi is something worth of dwelling upon a little bit that the one thing that i see when it comes to the knee context is everything i just got an e-mail last week about a high school the football team took any in the people in the stands took the knee because of racist and homophobic snap chats going around the school so black lives matter flags along w

so derek chauvin, who we didn't know how the verdict was to going to be. we go back to the hotel, tears streamings down our eyes, national, international media. and hen i had to get up the -- then i had to get up the next morning to go to brooklyn center to preach the funeral of another victim. and that's your life. and you only do that if you're committed, and that's what people -- and i write about it in that book, they were committed. because you can't stop until you change c the system that keeps allowing this to happen without penalty and accountability. >> the idea of that commitment and that, youme know, when you talk about the spiritual calling, right, even of a ben crump or eric garner's mom, that there was something in that. and i think about your story both of mamie nobody wily and -- mobley and even the washington temple or the breadbasket, i think there iss something, you know, i've said this before, there is something about the foundation of the faith ask and culture of black folks that helps to feed some of that strength. and, you know, i lo

chauvin's defense that floyd's death was undetermined >> if anton black is an accident and george floyd is undetermined, then how many other cases that we have no idea about are accidents and undetermined >> reporter: dr. roger mitchell is an expert in in custody police deaths how many in custody deaths are there in the u.s. each year >> no one knows. >> reporter: there are roughly 2,000 medical examiners and coroners in america dr. mitchell says there is no central data base, so no one knows how many people like anton die in police custody every year but he says he has a solution, adding a single box on a death certificate. >> a check box on the u.s. standard death certificate that allows us to see from a physician's hand who is dying in custody no matter what the manner of death so we can have an objective, public health measure of this issue. >> dr. fowler declined to speak with nbc news don't miss the new episode of "dateline" tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern, 9:00 central. >>> when we come back here tonight how one beloved umpire's unique style on the field is changing the game and in

we talk about this when we talk about the derek chauvin verdict a couple years ago. the real case there wasn't about derek chauvin who was discussed as kind of a rogue cop. the really important case for criminal justice reform would have been the bystander cops that were watching and what they did and what training was required of them. lots of training and money had been poured into legal departments to try to change the culture, and this suggests that maybe these efforts haven't been as successful as we would have liked. or maybe this is three rogue cops. who knows? it is worth begging the question, but at least today we saw a forceful response from the top law enforcement officer in the state of arkansas. >> and what kind of actual reform to law or policy would make this kind of abuse less likely, in your view? >> i think this is a very difficult question. we've seen lots of funds pour into the training, de-escalation. this is not a situation where the police were de-escalating. the question after this is what happens after these individuals are held accountable?

. >> both men were working with former officer derek chauvin when he pinned his knee on george floyd's neck for nine minutes in 2020. he was convicted last year and is serving more than 20 years on the state charge. >>> british drug regulators are the first in the world to authorize a covid vaccine targeting two different variants. the updated moderna booster helps to protect against the original covid strain and the omicron variant. officials say it meets regulator standards of safety, quality, and effectiveness. britain's health saert calls it good news for the uk population. >> uk's the first place in the world to license this new medicine, and it means that people will get access to a broader immunity than would otherwise have been the case. >> and british regulators say the side effects were similar to the original moderna booster. rna aner are working on a new vaccine to target the new virus and the ba.5 strain. >>> secretary lloyd austin is experiencing covid for a second time. the 69-year-old lloyd austin says he's experiencing mild symptoms and will quarantine at home for five

, who co-signed anton's autopsy report, declaring the death accidental, later testified for officer derek chauvin's defense that floyd's death was undetermined though the officers involved in anton's case declined to speak with "dateline," the president of the law enforcement legal defense fund defended their actions. >> i don't see any indication of malice i don't see any indication of indifference to mr. black's health or well-being and so i think it meets the professional standard >> reporter: today the greensboro, maryland police department declined to comment on the new settlement, which does not admit any wrongdoing a separate lawsuit against the medical examiner's office is ongoing. tom? >> okay, gabe, thank you for that >>> in 60 seconds, restricting abortion care the new study on the dangerous impact on some women forced to delay the procedure. >>> and later, new hope for a vaccine against lyme disease stay with us when pain says, “it's time to go home” “i say, “not yet”. ♪ ♪ aleve. who do you take it for? your shipping manager left to “find themself.” leaving y

i end up doing that eulogy one day after from derek chauvin. everybody's happy we go back to the hotel tears are streaming down our eyes with national and international media and then we have to go to brooklyn center to preach for the funeral for another such a life always do that and the people that s i read about they y were committed because you cannot stop until you change the system that keeps allowing this to happen without accountability. >> the idea of that commitment and the spiritual calling like eric garner's mom and there was something and i think about your story even what you talk about washington temple or the breadbasket. i have said this before there is something about the foundation of the faith in the culture of black folks to see thatd strength and i love how you knew you wanted to be a preacher from early on and the idea that you are not as impressed with thurgood marshall but something always called you to this work but also to the space. >> when i was very young i would always want look at the ministry of social activism.

i am shocked, one diner i'm going to take people to -- derek chauvin worked above it -- that was burned to the ground. i go to the location and where is the rebuild? its weeds, a lot of weeds now, nothing has been done. shocking. >> tucker: they destroy a city we put a cop in prison, we all had to pretend he committed murder, which he didn't but we have to pretend it and then they leave and move on to the next thing to destroy. laura ingraham, i appreciate the fact you're on this story tonight to. >> thanks so much, will next see you soon. >> tucker: we got involved in a controversy we don't know very much about -- golf. we interviewed greg norman who made his case for a new golf league is the commissioner of called liv golf. we talked to bryson about why he's doing this, next. >> tucker: last week our producers suggested a story on golf i don't know anything about golf and they said it's interesting and it is interesting, there's a new league called liv golf competing with the pga tour. we decided to go down to trump bedminster, trump national golf club in bedminster, new jersey, to le

that's how frankly we have -- for example, in the derek chauvin case in the murder of george floyd, we saw video in there. so it's not that there is video, but here where there's threats already out there. the fbi agents whose names are on the affidavit paperwork that was released have already faced threats. so when that's the issue here, that's a very strong argument for not releasing the tape, or for obscuring the faces of fbi agents involved so that they not be identified. >> no one is saying they would put out the full tapes this their raw form, but if they were to, the public would see more than 20 boxes of classified documents were being carried out. that might not be a good look. nick, i want to ask you about the former president's cfo, allen weisselberg. he pled guilty to several charges. he's expected to testify, not against anybody in the trump family but against the trump organization. so explain to you the cfo of the trump organization could testify against the company but not implicate anyone who has run the company in the past few years. >> well, i think the way he does i

a special prosecutor in that case, and we are already at the appeal stage was derek chauvin's appeal. so we've got that and the conviction of murder by the state of minnesota. there, where is, here the kentucky is doing nothing. they have never attempted to prosecute the two white police officers who shot and killed her. they left these other folks go as well. jeff is right. the evidence here looks damning against these officials. i'm so glad to see merrick garland bringing these charges. it's an incredibly important step in showing how federal legal action, even if it's severely delayed, can be really important. the feds are not charging word or the way that state officials would against the gaps. they're charging federal civil rights offenses, because that's the tool book they have, the toolkit they have, at the federal level. so it's an important step, and it will do something to provide some justice for breonna taylor. >> ambassador, back to britney griner. in terms of our leverage, our ability to negotiate, the fact that we continue to give so much support, along with our nato al

we saw this with derek chauvin, and they were convicted in the feds too. because here is why. the state came up way short in terms of investigation and outcomes in court, they only charged one officer, brett hankison and he was found not guilty and acquitted and they realize there was a fraud underlying all of this. three of the officers made up the facts that led them to get the search warrant to go into the home where breonna taylor was killed. that is a huge revelation that the state authorities missed but the feds caught it and they've charged those three officers plause hank isson. and isn't it double jeopardy. the answer is no. the law is clear, even if you've been tried, you could still be charged separately federally. >> thank you both very much. >>> okay. so meanwhile wnba star brittney griner was sentenced to nine years in prison but the team is faithful that the biden administration will do what it takes to bring her home. in a statement, the team said in part, we are steadfastly committed to keeping her top of mind publicly until she is safely back on american soil

derek chauvin for the killing of george floyd. i also talked about our work to address conditions inside our nation's jails and prisons and juvenile detention facilities. representative hank johnson joined us as well to talk about legislative priorities for criminal justice reform with a particular focus on drug policies, which he has championed. we also heard from desmond mead, who spoke passionately about issues facing returning citizens who are seeking access to the ballot and restoration of putting rights. finally, we heard from dr. raymond, who spoke about his school to prison pipeline and the ways that criminalization of juvenile behavior has a harmful effect on black boys. so we've got a firm foundation laid for us at our fat -- last public meeting and today we were to build on that and stand on that discussion to dive into talking about strategies. that is what we are going to hear from panelists today. we are going to focus on strategies for prevention and mitigation. and i am excited because we've got a panel of experts

chauvin's knee on the neck of george floyd. these two knees about where we are as a country and what we view as acceptable or not. people, the murder of george floyd, they have colin kaepernick for taking the knee and it's a fun house mirror of rowdy so there is this reality this hundred in terms of what we see as accessible as part of human life into something wen need to drill down on and discuss. another thing that so important is this idea of appropriationnd watering it down. as the future of this country. there's a knock much malcolm x stand, i'm going to sound oldt but when public enemy and chuck said 1989, most of my heroes don't appear on those stampedps and that was 1989, a true statementut. our icons of radicalism anddi icons of people fighting for direct change, they get appropriated because they can't be destroyed or forgotten. like you can't make this country forget about malcolm x or make young people forget about that history. ... l it back to people as consumable come something to sell. anything to make it safe,

the derek chauvin trial my kids would say george floyd called for his mother. would you come for me if that were me and in that moment i have a 9-year-old son who sees himself and the man dying on the ground and wondering if i will be there trying to process this information. my daughter asking questions like why do we say, say his name and wanted to say like every mother in this whip lets make some rice crispy treats and o go for walk into a scavenger hunt anything else but but this and realizing that in this moment i have to have the conversation and have a talk individually and not have the benefit of the distance of the camera. my kids t as you know masks on e not children will respond to your eyes. they can see the truth in it and sends any uncertainty and having to be direct. and not wanting them to. >> it's such a difficult time for parents. on the one hand the inevitable moment that will come. yet trying to build up that brazil and you talk about self identity and pride and safety, sense of safety. they are two things that struck me. one is i'm sitting

chauvin and the other officer involved in the situation were based out of. and i get down there and it was nothing like i never seen before. the protests were not affecting the blocks surrounding the incident, you know. there was some fights and valleys but i can go two blocks over and get something at mcdonald's. but this, this, nothing was open. everyplace especially in south minneapolis was either closed or they were being looted. so i get there and across the street from the third precinct there's a strip mall with a target, with the cup foods, a grocery chain out there. and several small businesses in the strip mall. people were just going in and out nonchalantly looting. especially the first, like black friday shopping. people rush in. by this time there is no fear because who's going to stop them? the cops are still hold up across the street. so it was very nonchalant, i am just walking around taking photos and video and it was just weird. yeah, people were still outside the third precinct. there were people, they were upset, they were very vulgar. th

[laughter] welcome ag t

watching me talk about say the derek chauvin trial and my kids would say mommy. i just heard you say. that george floyd called for his mother. would you come for me if that were me and realizing in that moment that i have a nine year old son. who sees himself and a man dying on the ground? and wondering if i will be there trying to process this information right? my daughter asking questions. like why do we say say her name? what's that about and wanting like every other mother in this world to say, let's make some rice. krispie treats. let's go for a walk. let's do a scavenger hunt do anything else but this and realizing that in this moment, i have to have the conversation globally. and have the talk individually and not have the benefit of maybe the distance of a camera my kids as you know mask on or not, you know children will respond to your eyes. they see the truth in it and they can see and sense any fear or blood in the water or uncertainty and having to be direct and god not wanting them to even know the truth. exactly. you cannot shield them right? it's

chauvin was far off of the bell curve. that is not the way typical police act and it was played 24/7, trying to tell people that this was typical. we talk to our friends on the other side of the world in australia and they say they are playing that all of the time over here. how often how often are young black men, unarmed killed by police officers? it is less than two dozen a year. there are more than 50 million police at civilian encounters a year, is nowhere near a common occurrence. there is another incident that occurred just like the george floyd incident, same kind of incident. he did die, almost no attention. why? because he was white. it did not fit the narrative. what a bunch of crab, if you think about it. my wife and i write extensively about that in our new book, created equal. we were energy independent, think about that, we were the net exporter of energy, cleanest air, cleanest water, and we gave all of that away. we gave the keys to putin, first of all it led to massive inflation, and because putin has the

take derek chauvin. there is zero evidence he did that because george floyd was black. he was not charged with a hate crime. let's deal with these things on a case-by-case basis. this is why young black men are not complying. i would not either if i thought the cop was going to do harm. i am told that by eric holder, barack obama, so-called black leaders. why would i not listen? i do not have a father to tell me otherwise. my father told my brothers and me if you are stopped by the cops, say yes sir, no sir, yes ma'am, no ma'am. he was not a biologist but he knew the difference between a man and a woman. make sure your paperwork is in order and if you feel you are mistreated, get the badge number and we will deal with that later. young black kids do not hear that but they hear eric holder talking about racism. it is making things worse and obama did a great deal of damage. i know he watches book notes and in depth on c-span. i hope you heard this. i have tried to have a cover station because i know he knows what i know. there is a magazine called police mag and they tal

but their person because that's where derek chauvin and the other officers involved in the situation where we're based out of yeah. and i get down there and it was i mean it was i think i'd like ever seen before because i had been so used to protests not affecting the blocks. surrounding the incident, you know you there were some fights and things can get rowdy, but i can go to bucks over and get something at mcdonald's. okay, but this this i mean nothing was open every place especially in south minneapolis was either closed or they they were they were being looted actively would so i get there and across the street from the third precinct. there's a strip mall with the target with a cub foods, which is kind of like a which is a grocery. store chain out there and there's some several small businesses in the strip mall. and people were just going out just nonchalantly looting because usually when especially in the first like my there's like a black friday shopping thing where people just rush it and but by this time because i mean, there's no fear because who's gonna stop them the cop

chauvin what he did there is zero evidence that he did because george floyd's black delete prosecutor never argued that he had a racial motive and he was not trying take this in the still with us on a case-by-case basis is my a lot of young black men are not complying i would not complain or five of the copes withholding of undue harm i'm told by eric wallin and barb barack obama so called black leaders why wouldn't i listen to that and i do have a father at home to me otherwise my father to my brothers and me, that of your a stop by the cops, say yes or no sir or yes member no ma'am. and at 10:00 o'clock and right hand 2:00 o'clock make your sure your paperwork in order and ther get a badge number if you mistreated a lot of young black kids don't have people saying that they do here obama talking about systemic racism so why wouldn't i believe it, he's making things worse in a moment do great damage and other he watches book notes an in-depth on c-span i really hope he has or doesn't try to reach out to him and have a conversation with him because i know he knows what i know. this ma

take derek chauvin. there is zero evidence that he did it because george floyd is black. the lead prosecutor never argued that he had a racial motive, and he wasn't charged with a hate crime. so let's deal with these things on a case-by-case basis. and this is one of the reasons why a lot of young black men aren't complying. i wouldn'tt comply either if i thought the white cop that pulled me over were going to do harm and i'm told that by so-called black leaders. why wouldn't i listen to that? i don't have a father at home to tell me otherwise. my father told me and my brothers if you're stopped by a cop, say, yes, sir, no, sir, yes, ma'am, no, ma'am. make sure your paperwork is in order. you peelma you're mistreated, gt a badge number and we'll deal with it hate arer on. a lot of young black kids don't have someone telling them that, but they hear barack obama and eric holder talking about systemic racism, and why wouldn't i believe it? obama did a great deal of damage. and i know that he watches book notes and in depth on c-span. i've tried to reach out to him and have
