  • Yesterday on the show

  • we spoke about the killing of Philando Castile, right,

  • and the verdict that exonerated the police officer who shot him.

  • And, honestly, I thought that I felt all I could feel

  • about this story, until I got home,

  • and I watched a newly released video.

  • And if you've already watched this video,

  • you don't have to watch it again.

  • I wouldn't say anyone has to watch this video,

  • but if you haven't seen it, it is graphic.

  • And you probably should watch it.

  • And we're gonna play it for you now.

  • Authorities have released dashcam video

  • revealing the chilling moments

  • that led to a police officer

  • shooting and killing Philando Castile

  • during a traffic stop last year in Minnesota.

  • The video comes just four days after a jury

  • found the police officer not guilty of manslaughter.

  • -Oh, no! -(gunshots)

  • (screaming)

  • I won't lie to you.

  • When I watched this video, it broke me.

  • Like, it-it just, it broke me.

  • You see so many of these videos, and you start to get numb,

  • but this one...

  • Seeing the child, that little girl,

  • getting out of the car after watching a man get killed,

  • it broke my heart into little pieces.

  • Like, I thought of every joke people make about,

  • "Oh, the most confusing day in the hood is Father's Day.

  • "People don't know where their parents are.

  • Ha-ha. Black dads, black--"

  • That's a black dad that's gone.

  • That's a child that grows up not knowing what it's like

  • to have somebody in their life.

  • Like, you watch that video...

  • And you know, you know what's the most painful thing,

  • is for years, for years people said

  • that there's a simple solution to police shootings:

  • Just give the police body cameras.

  • Film everything, then there'll be no question

  • about what happened, yeah.

  • And black people have already taken that initiative, right?

  • Thanks to cell phones, every black person has a body cam now.

  • Black people have been saying for years,

  • "Just give us, just give us an indictment.

  • "Just an indictment.

  • "You know what? Just get us in front of a jury.

  • "Just in front of a jury of our peers,

  • "of our fellow citizens.

  • "We'll show them the video, the evidence,

  • and then they will see it and justice will be served."

  • And black people finally get there,

  • and it's like, "Wait. What?

  • Nothing?"

  • You hear the stories, but you-you watch that,

  • and forget race.

  • Are we all watching the same video?

  • The video where a law-abiding man

  • followed the officer's instructions,

  • to the letter of the law, and was killed regardless?

  • People watched that video and then voted to acquit?

  • And the saddest thing is

  • that wasn't the only video that they watched.

  • DIAMOND REYNOLDS: You told him get his ID, sir,

  • his driver's license.

  • POLICE OFFICER: Keep your hands where they are, please.

  • Yes, I will, sir. I'll keep my hands where they are.

  • Please, Officer, don't tell me that you just did this to him.

  • You shot four bullets into him, sir.

  • "You shot four bullets into him, sir."

  • It's (bleep) mind-blowing that Diamond Reynolds

  • has just seen her boyfriend shot in front of her.

  • She still has the presence of mind

  • to be deferential to the policeman.

  • In that moment, the cop has panicked,

  • but clearly, black people never forget their training.

  • Still, in that moment, the black person is saying,

  • "Sir, I respect you, sir.

  • I understand what I need to do, sir."

  • The same thing Philando Castile did.

  • But still, according to the law,

  • the jury had to make a decision.

  • And that decision is do you think this policeman

  • was justified in thinking that his life was in danger?

  • And their opinion, having watched that video,

  • having listened to that excha... exchange,

  • they still said, "Yes, yes,

  • I can see why that cop was afraid."

  • But why? Let's be honest. Just why?

  • Why would you say he was afraid?

  • Was it because Philando Castile was being polite?

  • Was it because he was following the officer's instructions?

  • Was it because he was in the car with his family?

  • Or was it because Philando Castile was black?

  • It's one thing to have the system against you--

  • the district attorneys, the police unions, the courts--

  • that-that's one thing.

  • But when a jury of your peers, your community,

  • sees this evidence and decides that

  • even this is self-defense,

  • that is truly depressing.

  • Because what they're basically saying is...

  • in America,

  • it is officially reasonable

  • to be afraid of a person

  • just because they are black.
