Amanpour: Rear Admiral John Kirby, General John Allen, Paul van Zyl, Vincent Warren and Mark Bray

Protests and marches inspired by the death of George Floyd continue across the U.S. and beyond, while in Minneapolis, mourners gather at his memorial service. President Trump has called for tough action against the protesters, encouraging the deployment of active-duty military officers to quell domestic protests. Christiane Amanpour is joined by former U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, retired Rear Admiral John Kirby and former Commander of U.S. Forces in Afghanistan, General John Allen, to dissect the impact that these domestic deployments are having on military morale, and the role of the military in American democracy. Then, as America wrestles with deep-seated racism and police brutality, what lessons can be learnt from South Africa’s experience after apartheid and the idea of restorative justice? Christiane speaks to former Executive Secretary of the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Paul van Zyl, and Executive Director of the Center for Constitutional Rights, Vincent Warren. And our Michel Martin discusses ANTIFA, the anti-fascist group that President Trump is blaming for this week’s violence, with Mark Bray, lecturer and author of "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook".
