What should companies do to help in the fight against racial inequality?

Protests over the death of George Floyd have swept across the United States. On Business Weekly we ask what companies should be doing to help in the fight for racial equality. We hear from the National Black Chamber of Commerce and the National Retail Federation in the US. Plus we get the point of view of a shop owner in Minneapolis whose premises was destroyed in the rioting. This is happening against a backdrop of a pandemic - we’ll find out why different US states are taking such radically different steps to defeat the coronavirus. Plus after weeks of lockdown in France bars and cafes have re-opened - but it’s not entirely business as usual. Lucy Burton presents.
