70: Four Freedoms

Bloods in Nam, Racial Disparities and George Floyd

A documentary excerpt titled "Bloods in Nam" describes how Black men from farms and ghettos faced the highest casualties in Vietnam while fighting both the enemy and discrimination. The hosts argue that after the social unrest following George Floyd's death, it is contradictory for the government to expect Black Americans to "roll up their sleeves" for a system they were told does not love them.
