On Friday’s New Day, CNN guest host Erica Hill brought on the President of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives Lynda Williams to spout woke nonsense. Hill egged Williams on with anti-American ranting about “the reality that deep-seated racism has infected the United States of America for hundreds of years and has been allowed to fester and grow.” Williams responded by making her own radical claims, such as, “systemic racism is just as American as apple pie.” Hill began the segment by applauding Williams for attacking Attorney General William Barr, during a recent meeting, for his rejection of the idea that American law enforcement is plagued by systemic racism:     HILL: You were invited to the meeting with the Attorney General with a couple dozen other folks in law enforcement. No real agenda here, just a chat, but you did take that opportunity to address the Attorney General's comments from last month. What did you say and what was -- what was his reaction? WILLIAMS: I heard the testimony of Attorney General Barr that stated just what you played, that he did not believe that systemic racism was real. And so I pop in and say, sir, just because one does not exist -- I mean, just because one does not experience something does not negate this existence. That law enforcement as a microcosm of society, and it's to be real, but you can't resolve a problem unless you acknowledge a problem. Hill then empowered Williams to go on a deranged rant about America: HILL: And how did he respond to that? WILLIAMS: He tilted his head and he responded with a question, did I think that all of law enforcement was a -- was a -- based on systemic racism? I said, we can't throw a blanket on everything, but we can't deny it. But just the very -- very essence of it permeates throughout the organization and make it a racist society. And let's be real that systemic racism is part of our American culture, it's embedded in every facet of life. Systemic racism is just as American as apple pie and we have to acknowledge that and I -- I challenged him as the Attorney General who's the chief law enforcement officer for the entire United States to have a closed mind -- I challenge him and I spoke personally that as a 30-plus year veteran in law enforcement at the federal level as well as on a local level, then I know it to be true, and for him to not acknowledge that is for him to not -- not face reality of where we are, and what -- what -- what we -- what this country consists of. Signaling her virtue, Hill praised Williams for her blasting Barr: You know, what you're bringing up, the -- the refusal to -- to accept that reality, right? And -- and my -- my apologies, I'm forgetting who said this, so I apologize. But as we were having these difficult, necessary conversations, right, that I think it became more prevalent over the last couple of months, I was struck by someone who said empathy means believing the other person's experience, right? You have to believe what they told you, they felt and experienced in that moment, even if you weren't there. Hill doubled down on the leftist insanity by claiming that “deep-seated racism has infected the United States”: To your point, it's not about so much a deep-seated racism infecting police departments, it's the reality that deep-seated racism has infected the United States of America for hundreds of years and has been allowed to fester and grow, and there is still apparently this block even at the highest levels to acknowledge its existence. Maybe instead of focusing on Bill Barr and bashing white Americans, Hill should focus on Kamala Harris, who as the Attorney General of California locked away many black people for victimless crimes. CNN has long embraced the radical left, which results in unhinged segments such as this. This steaming pile of woke garbage was paid for by WeatherTech and GoodRx.

Good to have you with us. So, you're only a couple weeks into the job, right? Into being put into this position, and you were invited to the meeting with the Attorney General with a couple dozen other folks in law enforcement. No real agenda here, just a chat, but you did take that opportunity to address the Attorney General's comments from last month. What did you say and what was -- what was his reaction? LYNDA WILLIAMS (PRESIDENT, NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF BLACK LAW ENFORCEMENT EXECUTIVES): Well, good morning, first of all, and thank you for having me. HILL: Good morning. WILLIAMS: New to that -- that position as national president but not to that platform. And so, the National Organization of Black Enforcement Executives, NOBLE, it's part of a network of major law enforcement organizations. And so, exactly, he invited us to -- to chat. There was no specific agenda. And so I -- I patiently let everyone speak, but just two weeks actually on the very day that I was sworn in, I heard the testimony of Attorney General Barr that stated just what you played, that he did not believe that systemic racism was real. And so I pop in and say, sir, just because one does not exist -- I mean, just because one does not experience something does not negate this existence. That law enforcement as a microcosm of society, and it's to be real, but you can't resolve a problem unless you acknowledge a problem. HILL: And how did he respond to that? WILLIAMS: He tilted his head and he responded with a question, did I think that all of law enforcement was a -- was a -- based on systemic racism? I said, we can't throw a blanket on everything, but we can't deny it. But just the very -- very essence of it permeates throughout the organization and make it a racist society. And let's be real that systemic racism is part of our American culture, it's embedded in every facet of life. Systemic racism is just as American as apple pie and we have to acknowledge that and I -- I challenged him as the Attorney General who's the chief law enforcement officer for the entire United States to have a closed mind -- I challenge him and I spoke personally that as a 30-plus year veteran in law enforcement at the federal level as well as on a local level, then I know it to be true, and for him to not acknowledge that is for him to not -- not face reality of where we are, and what -- what -- what we -- what this country consists of. HILL: You know, what you're bringing up, the -- the refusal to -- to accept that reality, right? And -- and my -- my apologies, I'm forgetting who said this, so I apologize. But as we were having these difficult, necessary conversations, right, that I think it became more prevalent over the last couple of months, I was struck by someone who said empathy means believing the other person's experience, right? You have to believe what they told you, they felt and experienced in that moment, even if you weren't there. WILLIAMS: Yes. HILL: And so, what's fascinating to me too is him sort of, you know, tilting his head and listening, but -- but the point that you make I think speaks to another point that we heard him kind of double down on in that -- in that testimony. And I want to play that moment as well. WILLIAMS: Okay. (Cuts to video) BARR: Blacks will not be treated evenhandedly. They will not be given the benefit of the doubt. They will be treated with greater suspicion. At the same time, I think it would be an oversimplification to treat the problem as rooted in some deep-seated racism generally infecting our police departments. (Cuts to live) HILL: To your point, it's not about so much a deep-seated racism infecting police departments, it's the reality that deep-seated racism has infected the United States of America for hundreds of years and has been allowed to fester and grow, and there is still apparently this block even at the highest levels to acknowledge its existence. WILLIAMS: Absolutely. And as a law enforcement person and leading an organization such as NOBLE, it was a personal affront because again I pointed out to him that you first have to recognize that there's a problem and that you can't solve that problem if you pretend there isn't one. And even more so, you can't resolve it by making -- making excuses. You've got to acknowledge it. So I said, I challenge you respectfully, you have to acknowledge this because it negates everything that I stand for, who I am, and that's why this country stands where it is if we don't acknowledge that there -- there is a problem and that we have to make a change. HILL: What was the reaction from the other people who were part of that meeting? WILLIAMS: You could hear a pin drop. There was nodding and a couple of other colleagues jumped in after I opened that -- that Pandora's Box. But, you know, everyone listened attentively. But you can't deny reality and you can't be afraid to speak the truth. And that's the boldness of being in the position that I'm in, that you have to have the courage to speak truth to power. You know, at the end of the day, he's a public servant as am I. He's a man with a title, but if we don't talk, if we don't communicate, we can never find resolve to the problems that exist. HILL: It's a great point. We really appreciate you being with us this morning. Thank you for those decades of service as well. And listen, I'd love to continue to follow this with you and see where this goes, especially as you now have taken the reins as president of NOBLE.
