What happens after a hate crime
On February 10, 2015 three young Muslim Americans were murdered in a Chapel Hill, North Carolina apartment. What initially seemed like a clear case of a hate crime to many turned into a battle that would play out for years in the press and in the courts. Along the way, it renewed questions about how the United States handles hate. Featuring: Farris Barakat, co-founder of the Light House Project Satana Deberry, Durham County District Attorney Dr. Arwin Smallwood, historian and dean of the College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities at NC Central University Links: Thanks to Tarek Albaba, director of the new documentary film 36 Seconds: Portrait of a Hate Crime. Special thanks also to the International Civil Rights Center and Museum in Greensboro, NC for letting us record in their space.
