"I saw my brother in these boys. I saw my son in these boys.鈥�
First, we talk to an activist speaking out against violence towards blacks in America. Then, we hear how the story of one police shooting in San Francisco has been turned into a stage play.
Next, we learn why the Bahamas issued a travel advisory to the US. Also, we hear about the perils of "walking while black" in New York City. Plus, a daughter figures out how to talk to her father about race for the first time.
We end the show with 鈥淎merican Tune,鈥欌�� a posthumous release by the New Orleans musician Allen Toussaint.
