For more than a year, the January Sixth Select Committee has investigated and interviewed thousands of witnesses, piecing together their testimonies with videos, texts, emails, and other documents to help uncover an undeniable, coordinated 7-part plan by the former President of the United States to try to overturn the results of a legal and valid presidential election.

January 30, 2022
CNN national correspondent Sara Sidner explores traffic stops and the psychological, social, and financial trauma they cause Black drivers who get caught up in a system fraught with racial bias.

According to a study from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, Black drivers are twice as likely as White drivers to be pulled over and four times as likely to be searched. This extreme disparity is difficult to explain with legitimate law enforcement objectives. Indeed, the data show that contraband is found less often on Black drivers than on White drivers.
