Description

Thousands of Arab Americans and Muslims took to the streets in Dearborn, Michigan yesterday to protest President Biden’s support for Israel. This was as Biden visited the city to talk about the electric vehicles from a Ford plant.

Plus, why so many Hispanic people in the U.S. want vaccines but aren’t getting them.

And, a call for better police training.

Guests: Sarah Rahal, city reporter for The Detroit News, director of racial equity and health policy at the Kaiser Family Foundation's Samantha Artiga, and Axios' David Nather.
Credits: Axios Today is produced in partnership with Pushkin Industries.
