The White House said Thursday that protesters angered by the fatal police shooting of a black man in Charlotte, North Carolina, are raising “legitimate” concerns about racial disparities in the criminal-justice system.
“Those are difficult questions that must be confronted,” said White House press secretary Josh Earnest. “They cannot be ignored.”
Mr. Earnest said the president wants authorities to ensure the safety of protesters.
“The president also hopes that the rights of peaceful protesters will be protected,” he said."
