We\u2019re talking about banks like Brown Brothers Harriman, who benefited from slavery. Other insurance companies that sold insurance policies on slaves. We\u2019re talking about the American government that was founded on the backs of slaves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The interview then deteriorated, with McCallum and Newsome talking over each other after the host pointedly asked him if he thought it was \u201cethically OK\u201d to loot stores \u2014 which he never answered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOK. Before I answer that, I want to ask you this,\u201d Newsome responded. \u201cDo you think it\u2019s OK that our government kills people in their homes like Breonna Taylor?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s OK.
