NEW YORK — The Feds are launching an investigation into the highway patrol in South Carolina because of this dash-cam video. State troopers using that racial slur that begins with an ‘n,’ and then ramming their cruisers into black suspects.

Jami Floyd delivers the Last Word.

The point of showing you this, and telling you about it on national television, isn’t to bring you more bad news. It’s not to stir up racial tension, it’s not to make anyone angry. We’re showing you this because there are folks out there who think racism is no longer a problem in America, but it is. And nowhere more than in our criminal justice system.

So don’t get complacent because you live next door to a nice black family, don’t feel good about things just because your son or daughter sits next to a black child in school, and certainly don’t kid yourself that the journey to equality is over because a black man is running for President.

‘Cause even if he wins, we still have a whole lot of work to do in America, and this video proves it. And that’s the Last Word.
