Victor Gibson poses for a photo July 9, 2020, in Detroit. Despite fears that the coronavirus pandemic will worsen, Gibson said he's not planning to take advantage of Michigan's expanded vote-by-mail system when he casts his ballot in November. The retired teacher from Detroit just isn't sure he can trust it. Many Black voters across the U.S. share similar concerns and are planning to vote in person on Election Day, even as voting by mail expands to more states as a safety precaution during the pandemic.

Six of America's late-night television comedy hosts - five of them white men - turned serious after the nation's weekend of unrest following the death of George Floyd to suggest they and others need to do more than talk about racism. It has become a ritual - a somewhat inexplicable one, as TBS' O'Brien noted - for these comics to come on the air after acts of terrorism, school shootings or other national traumas to try and make sense of them for their audiences.

FILE - In this 1950's file photo released by the National Archives, a black man included in a syphilis study has blood drawn by a doctor in Tuskegee, Ala.

Some might call it the Tuskegee effect, referring to the U.S. government’s once-secret syphilis study of black men in Alabama that one study shows later reduced their life expectancy due to distrust of medical science.
