12:40Now PlayingNew York City Mayor-elect Eric Adams campaigned as a tough on crime, law-and-order candidate.
While many voters have bought into Adams’ plan to deal with crime, his plan to reinstate the anti-crime units has drawn the ire of activists. During a closed-door meeting with Black Lives Matter of greater New York, Adams clashed with the group on the methods historically employed by task forces like the anti-crime units.
Following the meeting, the group’s leader Hawk Newsome, warned that there would be riots and bloodshed if Adams brings back the units.
Newsome, along with activist DeRay Mckesson joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to discuss Adams’ approach to policing.
All this and more on “Prime.”
