Sanders: "Sandra Bland Would Be Alive Today If She Were a White Woman"
----------------------------------------------------------------------

In a statement, Democratic presidential candidate and Vermont Senator
Bernie Sanders said, "There's no doubt in my mind that [Sandra Bland],
like too many African-Americans who die in police custody, would be
alive today if she were a white woman. We need to reform a very broken
criminal justice system."
