9:35Now PlayingIn this fiery excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill goes all the way in on the Trump Justice Department for pulling out of federal police reform deals tied to the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, just days before the fifth anniversary of Floyd’s death. Hill calls out the blatant disrespect and exposes how this move sends a clear message: America still ain’t serious about fixing racist policing.
These “consent decrees” were supposed to change how police operate in places like Minneapolis and Louisville. Instead, Trump’s DOJ stepped back, saying they don’t want to “micromanage” local cops. Hill breaks down what that really means, why reform ain't enough, and why the system stays broken, by design.
This moment shows how the game is rigged from both sides, Democrats and Republicans, and Hill reminds us that true justice won’t come from within the system. It’s time to dream and build abolitionist alternatives that don’t depend on the same broken structures.
Marc Lamont Hill is a scholar, journalist, and host of NIGHT SCHOOL, known for his fearless analysis of race, justice, and politics. He’s the author of Nobody: Casualties of America’s War on the Vulnerable, from Ferguson to Flint and Beyond.
