He will first meet with his Cabinet to discuss the results of a review of federal programs that provide militarystyle equipment to state and local law enforcement agencies. Obama has also invited younger civil rights leaders for a meeting today to discuss what one official described as the “broader challenges we still face as a nation, including the mistrust between law enforcement and communities of color.” Attorney General Eric Holder is heading to Atlanta today to speak at Ebenezer Baptist Church where Martin Luther King Jr. once preached. We speak with Michael Eric Dyson, professor of sociology at Georgetown University. His oped for the New York Times this weekend is "Where Do We Go After Ferguson?" He is the author of a forthcoming book on President Obama and race.
