Trump orders declassification of FBI's MLK assassination files
Coming up on Here and Now, we discuss President Donald Trump's controversial call to declassify FBI files on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination.
The recent declassification of FBI files related to the death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. has garnered some mixed emotions.
Despite the objections of the King family, President Trump ordered the release of the documents. But now some people are asking if this about government transparency, an intent to tarnish Dr. King's legacy or perhaps deflection.
David J. Dent has spent decades covering the intersection of race and politics. The award-winning author and New York University professor joins Here and Now to discuss.
Also ahead, the quality of life investments and improvements coming to the Bronx. We hear from the Bronx Borough President, who is leading the way.
And the critical need for African American blood donors -- how the American Red Cross is meeting that demand.
