The events of Charlottesville and response by President Donald Trump is the big topic.

Did he justify the violence in Virginia by blaming both sides, not only the neo-Nazis, the groups protesting against them?

Has the commander-in-chief become the bigot-in-chief - or has the media blown it all out of proportion?

This comes as Trump criticized the removal of Confederate monuments around the country. He calls them symbols of our history; others call them symbols of hate.

On the panel:

Rochelle Riley, award-winning Detroit Free Press columnist, member of Michigan Journalism Hall of Fame.

Thaddeus McCotter, former Republican congressman current attorney and talk show host.

Sheila Cockrel, former Detroit city councilwoman, co-director of Citizen Detroit.

Kerry Jackson, former lobbyist currently a conservative radio host at 910 AM.
