On Thursday, President Trump attempted to distance himself from the racist chant of “send her back” about Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar at a Trump campaign rally Wednesday in North Carolina.

We speak with Ibram X. Kendi, founding director of the Antiracist Research and Policy Center at American University.
