We take your calls and discuss a busy week of protests over race, racism, police violence against people of color, and President Trump's move to temper them with a militarized response.

This week's panelists include:

  • Howard Bryant, a senior writer for ESPN, a sports correspondent for NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday, and author of nine books including "Full Dissidence: Notes From An Uneven Playing Field."
  • Tom Nichols, a professor of national security affairs at the U.S. Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island and the Harvard Extension School, and a senior advisor to The Lincoln Project.

This program aired on June 5, 2020.
