The Trump Administration may not be willing to protect black and brown Americans from air pollution. But it’s happy to blame them for getting sick when they breathe it in, as the Rev. William Barber explains. The architect of the Moral Monday protests and one of America’s preeminent civil rights leaders discusses the disproportionate effects of the coronavirus on communities of color and what we can do about it.
