BBC World Service - Newshour, Does US need police reform?

In the wake of George Floyd's death, is there systemic racism in the US police force?

After protests and violence spreads to more US cities in the wake of the death of George Floyd, questions are being asked about whether there is systemic racism in the US police force, and whether there needs to be urgent reform.

Also in the programme: the US Sheriff who joined a march protesting against George Floyd's killing; and the Bulgarian-born artist Christo, who wrapped public buildings in cloth, has died aged 84.
