As protests escalate over the death of Black males at the hand of police, a United Nations panel questions US record on police brutality. In response to the protests, President Obama asks Congress to approve funding to reform police departments, including equipping them with body cameras. Civil rights advocates join this edition to discuss the cases that have unleashed the public wrath and reform proposals.
