The Takeaway

Where We Are One Year After Charlottesville


Listen Later

This weekend marks the first anniversary of the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. We discuss the strength of hate groups and extremist organizations, with the director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project. Earlier this week, voters in St. Louis, Missouri ousted a longtime county prosecutor who had been criticized for his investigation into the police shooting of black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, four years ago today. Latino actor, Jay Hernandez will play the lead role in the reboot of the hit TV series, “Magnum P.I.” But, as with many recent reboots, it's unclear how much the show will incorporate the actor’s cultural identity into the production.
