Police: Last Week Tonight (John Oliver)
WARNING: Graphic language (cussing/profanity), police brutality of peaceful demonstrators, racism
Policing in America: Last Week Tonight
(LastWeekTonight)
Nov. 24, 2024: This look back is from Season 7, Episode 14, from June 7th, 2020. As nationwide protests over the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor [Blacks killed by racist and/or implicitly biased police] are met with police brutality, John Oliver discusses how the histories of policing and white supremacy are intertwined, the roadblocks to fixing things, and some potential paths forward. (Who is LAPD Police Chief Michel Moore?)
