Giuliani: Saying ‘black lives matter’ is ‘inherently racist’

In an interview with The Associated Press, the presumptive GOP nominee struck a balance between the law-and-order rhetoric he has espoused during his campaign and an appreciation for the concerns held by African-Americans nationwide about the conduct of police.

Five police officers were killed in Dallas last week, and two bailiffs and a suspect were killed after a courthouse shooting in Michigan Monday afternoon.

“He sounds like he’s trying to convince white people of the fact that black people are mourning and grieving, as opposed to speaking directly to black people”, Glaude, chairman of the Center for African American Studies at Princeton, said on MSNBC on Monday.
