    Pride, Humility, And America’s Dedication To Human Rights

    Research | Articles | by Peter Berkowitz
    Sunday, June 7, 2020

    The callous taking of George Floyd’s life has provoked both peaceful protests and violent rioting in American cities. The turmoil in our streets underscores the essential importance of a criminal justice system rooted in the rule of law and of a free press that reports accurately on the actions of citizens and government officials. The questions roiling the nation about police brutality, civic unrest, and America's commitment to human rights will linger. 

    YOU SAY YOU WANT A REPARATION: Reparations for Slavery

    Research | Videos
    Monday, May 21, 2001

Would payment of reparations erase the lingering economic problems in the African American community or would they do more harm than good? And if reparations are a good idea, who should receive them, all African Americans or just those descended from slaves?
