Amanpour

About this episode

As George Floyd is laid to rest in his hometown of Houston, Texas, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is calling for “transformative structural change”. Christiane Amanpour is joined by Bill Moyers, the broadcaster and journalist who served in Lyndon Johnson’s White House. They reflect on how the death of George Floyd has impacted America, and what this powerful moment of moral reckoning, in the midst of a health crisis and during an election year, might lead to? The calls for racial equality in the wake of Floyd’s death have spread beyond geographic boundaries, influencing many around the world to reflect on the failings of their own societies. Christiane speaks to Afua Hirsch, journalist and author of "Brit(ish)", and Eusebius McKaiser, broadcaster and author of "Run Racist Run", about the need for many nations to confront their colonial histories anew. And our Walter Isaacson is joined by Chairman of the U.S. House Republican Study Committee, Mike Johnson, to discuss systemic change in America, police reform and how he feels about President Trump's handling of the crisis.  To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
