you know, breanna taylor, who is someone everyone should know, she was in her home in louisville, kentuckye was a 26-year-old aspiring nurse who was an emt, exactly who we are depending on right now, and police charged into her home, shot eight rounds into her while she was sleeping and at rest because they were looking for some person on a drug charge who actually turned out was already in custody. it's heartbreaking. it's the kind of life that americans -- yeah. >> and i appreciate that. we're on a slight tape delay. i'm jumping in because there is one thing i do want to include, heather. so often we're hitting what needs to change and the news hits the negative. i did want to note in the senate judiciary committee that rebecca dixon, who runs the national employment law project was testifying about these issues. it's important that the government is actually doing that as part of oversight. so for your response on the over side, we did want to play this. it's in the language of testimony. it would appear dry if you listen closely just as we were to you, you hear the import. let's listen

the breanna taylor situation, you can be in your bed. you're a subject, not a citizen. that is how black people feel right now we're being treated as subjeb subjects and not as citizens and the same thing with armed white men that can get armed up and walk into a state capitol and that's okay. the police are benign. they don't act afraid. let black people show up and protest the death of an innocent black man and suddenly we need tear gas and got to go full force. >> yeah, the subject citizen line is so perfectly apt in this case and particularly in those -- the images we did see, have seen of police in the face of these protesters where the relationship there is like constituent or citizen or okay, well, i'm here to make sure nothing goes down to make sure your constitutional right to bear arms and protest are protected, that's my sort of sovereign duty here and that's just not the way. i mean, in baltimore, in ferguson and last night in minneapolis and every other protest that i've ever covered against police violence, it does not go down like that. >> at all. charlot
