Sunday shows preview: Protests against George Floyd's death, police brutality rock the nation for a second week | TheHill - The Hill

The protests sparked by the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died in Minneapolis police custody on May 25, and the subsequent instances of police brutality to quell them are expected to dominate the Sunday show circuit this weekend. 

Floyd’s death has led to another week of protests across the U.S., as demonstrators demand systemic police reforms.

Alicia Garza, co-founder of the Black Lives Matter movement, one of the main groups organizing protests, is booked on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and so is Lonnie Bunch, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution and founding director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture. 

In response to the protests, House Democrats plan to unveil criminal justice legislation this week crafted by members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) that would repeal the so-called qualified immunity doctrine for law enforcers, which protects individual officers from lawsuits over actions they perform while on duty.

The demonstrations in Washington, D.C., have been among the most tense this week as federal law enforcement used military helicopters, tear gas and flash bangs to disperse protesters near the White House. 

Former Defense Secretary James Mattis penned a cutting statement in The Atlantic this week offering a blistering rebuke of Trump’s handling of Monday night’s protests in Washington and elsewhere in the nation.
