trayvon martin, the young boy who was killed in florida, was not killed by the police. these presumptions of dangerousness and guilt that go to a larger issue. and that's why, for me, we have to talk about our history. who we are in the story. you know, it's interesting that in commonwealth countries, areas. . . australia, canada, there's this reckoning going on with how to respond to indigenous people, orfirst people, and you see things happening in those societies that are trying to address the damage that was done. the united states is a country that is a post—genocide society because when europeans came to this country, millions of indigenous people were killed through famine and war and disease, and we haven't talked about that. most americans have no idea how many indigenous people lived on these lands. we don't recite the names of the tribes and the communities who occupied the spaces before we begin things. we're not reckoning in that way because we haven't dealt with what the narrative of racial difference that we have carved this country around has contributed

i can remember february 26th of 2012 when trayvon martin was murdered and then you go forward eight more years on february 3rd of 2020 when ahmaud arbery was murdered. we have the dates when black men are literally murdered in our minds. that is not right. it shouldn't be right now and it should not have been right back then. the question is when is it going to stop? that question needs to be answered by the american people, knowing that these continuous actions happen in the state of georgia, around the south in other areas of the nation, so it's important for the federal government to bring these hate crimes charges and to charge them to the fullest extent. for ahmaud arbery's mother saying no, we are not going to accept the plea deal, and i stand with her, and they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. >> the entire country will be watching and we will continue to cover it. christopher bruce, the director of aclu, thank you for joining us. >> doing great, alex. thank you. >> thank you. >> we have one more story. stay with us. stay with us at xfinity, we live and work

and this is a pattern that we saw with trayvon martin, what we saw with george floyd, and what we saw with sandra bland. we say with this mamie till, who had to defend her 14-year-old child's reputation, and eric garner's mother having to defend her son. who simply did not want to be harassed. >> they want to assassinate our child twice. they want to kill them on the street and then assassinate their character. so we have to get out there and say no, you're wrong. let me tell you who my child was. >> michael donald was an innocent good samaritan. not a thug. >> so we obtained permission to search michael's room, and basically found nothing in his bedroom. >> we knew the kind of young man he was. we knew the kind of family he had. some people were trying to say we don't think it's an issue that has anything to do with violation of civil rights. we don't think it has anything to do with race. we think it was some drug deal that went bad or something. we knew that wasn't the case. you could not convince anybody in the black community. >> so we had to live and walk through it. because we

black person unjustly, the department of justice will hold you accountable for a long time after trayvon martinthe department of justice to bring hate crime case against people that killed our young people unjustly, and they would normally decline in almost every instance, but today we see what happened in brunswick, georgia of all places that it is possible for the federal government to come and do what they were meant to do with their department of justice civil rights division. >> bottom line, ben, does the justice department here in washington need to be more aggressive in pursuing hate crimes prosecutions? >> well, that has always been our request but i have to give this department of justice administration under biden, they have charged more civil rights hate crime cases than i've seen in my career. you know, in minneapolis right now, you have the civil rights trial going against the three officers who were responsible for helping derrick chauvin kill george floyd. that trial was going on, and that was brought by department of justice. i haven't seen that in years past they would bring th

the trayvon martin verdict forced people to grapple with the reality that they were look agent a childmurder not facing any charges. >> it appeared what you health all day long. >> >> you make the decision that you have to leave. but i'm curious, what would you worry what have happened if you stayed? >> at the timing i decided i could no los angeleser stay. my family financially we were just really struggling to get by. and my mother purchase add home which is the only home she could afford. and there were many times i walked down the trees. and they were -- to the men up and down the street. but they're on drugs. so quite frankly, literally, i was on frank seven. i couldn't afford a safe neighborhood any more and i recognized very quickly that could mean danger >> tiffany, where do you live now? where do you call home? what is life like for you now. >> i live in trinidad and toby bego. the pandemic has changed everything in the world. and one thing they and have changed is sense of home. nobody's looking at you or your children because you're people of color saying you don't belong in

understand there's things like this, this profiling and stereotyping of our children that leads to a trayvon martinahmaud arbery. you scratch your head and said why was it that the black kid was presumed guilty and the white kid was presumed innocent? the black kid was put face down with a knee in his back, while the white kid was coddled and allowed to sit on the chair and watch them humiliate the black kid, and the black kid, why was he put in handcuffs, and detained unreasonably for almost 30 minutes, and the white kid, joy, he would put his hands up to be handcuffed and the whis policewoman palted him on the shoulder and said you're free to go. >> when the police had you detained, what did they ask you or tell you? did they tell you why you were being detained? >> they said it was basically protocol. >> did they explain to you why the other kid was not? >> no. >> and what did they -- did they interrogate you? did you feel that they were accusing you of a crime? >> kind of, yes. >> and i guess the other question i have to ask you, and this is harder to ask because you are a child younger than my
