Can Hungary still call itself a democracy?

We challenge Hungarian government spokesperson Zoltán Kovács and debate the case for reparations for US slavery.

This week on UpFront Marc Lamont Hill challenges Hungary’s Secretary of State for International Communication and Relations Zoltán Kovács on the erosion of democratic standards under nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

And in the Arena, Barbara Ransby, a professor of African American studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Jared Ball, a professor of communication studies at Morgan State University, discuss the case for reparations for the historical injustices because of slavery in the United States.
