We speak to Bishop William J. Barber II about conservative Christian activist Charlie Kirk's killing and the right-wing weaponization of his death. Barber says outrage over political violence should also extend beyond Kirk's assassination, to what he refers to as the political violence of policy, including the hundreds around the world who die of poverty, war and disease every day.
