And yet, in this country, in the states of the Old South, we execute people -- where you're 11 times more likely to get the death penalty if the victim is white than if the victim is black, 22 times more likely to get it if the defendant is black and the victim is white -- in the very states where there are buried in the ground the bodies of people who were lynched.
Tetapi di negara ini, di negara-negara bagian wilayah selatan, kita mengeksekusi orang, yang 11 kali berpeluang dihukum mati jika korbannya kulit putih daripada hitam, peluangnya 22 kali lebih besar jika terpidana berkulit hitam dan korbannya kulit putih, di negara bagian yang sama di mana terkubur mayat orang-orang yang dihukum gantung.
