Lisa speaks with two former mayors of Cincinnati, Ohio: David Mann, who is white, and Dwight Tillery, who is black. They discuss the racial tensions that seem present in Cincinnati after the shooting death of an unarmed black citizen by a white police officer. Because of rioting and looting, a public curfew was imposed, which ended last week.
