Special preview of Into America presents: Uncounted Millions
15 February - 6 minsOn Into America presents: Uncounted Millions: The Power of Reparations, award-winning MSNBC correspondent Trymaine Lee dives into one of today’s most pressing debates: reparations.
Months ago, Trymaine discovered the little-known story of Gabriel Coakley and it blew his mind. In the midst of the Civil War, Coakley was among a handful of Black people who found a way to get compensated for slavery by the US government.

And as more cities and states consider the issue at a policy level, he imagines how reparations might shape the whole of Black America.
