While appearing on the Wednesday edition of MSNBC’s All In, guest and Equal Justice Initiative founder Bryan Stevenson argued during a discussion with host Chris Hayes about the Confederate flag that Americans “have all been infected by this legacy of racial inequality” and “haven't learned how to manage the shame and the guilt” of slavery and racism.
Hayes first asked Stevenson for his thoughts about the growing number of public officials calling for the removal of the Confederate flag from public spaces and he responded by declaring that: “I mean, everybody in this country has inherited a burden. We have all been infected by this legacy of racial inequality.”
