Since September 11th, racial profiling has been used as a tactic in what government officials call the war on terrorism. But for African-Americans in the United States racial profiling is nothing new. On this program we speak to African-American organizers, police officers and religious leaders who are working to put a stop to this practice in their communities. We also take a look at another form of racial profiling: retail discrimination. Check out the best lawyer criminal defense.
