(D-CA) said Sunday on Spectrum News 1’s "In Focus SoCal" that police in America believe "their greatest challenge and their greatest choir is to keep black people in their place."Anchor Tanya McRae asked, "We again witnessed racial tensions explode in this country after the death of George Floyd.

It stems from slavery when whites were absolutely in charge, and they absolutely controlled the lives of people and their families. They decided to separate families and send the boys in one direction, the girls in another the mothers to the big house. I mean, they’ve always been in charge.

And I think it continues in various ways. Sometimes a little bit more sophisticated ways."
She added, "The police, I think really believe and in some ways are led to believe that their greatest challenge and their greatest choir is to keep black people in their place."
