Attorney General William Barr said on Sunday that he does not believe the American law enforcement system is racist, but acknowledged the distrust people in the African-American community have historically had toward law enforcement.
“I think there’s racism in the United States still but I don’t think that the law enforcement system is systemically racist. I understand ... the distrust, however, of the African-American community given the history in this country,” Barr said during an interview on CBS’s Face the Nation.
