Joy Reid, MSNBC host of "The ReidOut," has written a new book about the historical relationship between Medgar and Myrlie Evers (now Myrlie Evers-Williams). Medgar and Myrlie: Medgar Evers and the Love Story That Awakened America, traces the love story between the two Civil Rights figures, their efforts in Mississippi fighting against Jim Crow laws, and the aftermath of Medgar's assassination by a member of the KKK. Reid joins us to discuss the book, and why this relationship is key in understanding the history of the Civil Rights Movement.
