An Alabama city leader named Tommy Bryant is under heavy scrutiny after using a racial slur during a council meeting.
It took place in Tarrant, Alabama, where according to the latest Census numbers, it’s 53% Black.
Bryant’s wife allegedly used a racial slur on social media. He deflected on responding about his wife and told a Black colleague to stand up after he so boldly and comfortably asked if there were any House N-words in the room.
Brittney Cooper, who is an Africana Studies professor at Rutgers University, joins “Prime” to discuss the controversy and the definition of racism.
All this and more on “Prime.”
