John says from 2014 that systemic bias against African Americans is not really debatable, runs through every facet of American life, and raises disease mortality among people of color. Hank points from 2014 to systemic racism in the justice system and drug arrests, and in 2019 says racism is sometimes intentional and sometimes just how a kid looks to you.
