Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D) said he approves of international courts investigating the US justice system to determine if the latter is systemically racist. Speaking on MSNBC during last Tuesday’s broadcast of “The ReidOut,” Ellison – the former Democratic Party’s deputy chairman – said, “(I)f we have nothing to hide, we shouldn’t worry about what might be found by the international community.” “The International Criminal Court is looking at the American criminal justice system and its treatment particularly of African Americans and saying that it might be crimes against humanity,” said MSNBC host Joy Reid while talking with Ellison.
