Forty years after race riots in Detroit, Newark and dozens of other cities
stunned the nation, has anything changed? Bill Moyers interviews Newark Mayor
Cory Booker for a frontline report on race and politics today. The program takes
a look at an update of the Kerner Commission Report, which blamed the violence
on the devastating poverty and hopelessness endemic in the inner cities of the
1960s and includes an interview with former Oklahoma Senator Fred Harris, one
of the last living members of the Kerner Commission.
