Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg was grilled during his testimony on Capitol Hill. The hearing was about Libra, Facebook's proposed cryptocurrency, but Zuckerberg also commented on the social network's commitment to civil rights and what the company has done to promote diversity after the company's settlement with various civil rights groups related to discrimination tied to advertising and housing. Rep. Maxine Waters, Rep. Joyce Beatty and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took turns questioning the founder of Facebook who claims they will not launch their cryptocurrency until U.S. regulators approve.

Roland Martin say there was “lots of drama” over the weekend and Benedict college. 10 Democrats showed up to speak and Donald Trump too. Not only did Trump show up, but he also got an award and changed the “format” of his visit. That’s when Martin says “all hell broke loose.” Martin talks to President of Benedict college Dr. Roslyn Clark Artis about what went down. She says that the presidential forum was planned by the 2020 Justice Forum and Benedict was the “host site.” She says Trump was initially invited to speak at the forum as a candidate, in that case he would have been asked questions like the other candidates. But, he wasn’t because he declared his trip to South Carolina as an “official white house visit” which shifted the rules and he wasn’t allowed to be asked questions.
