Newt Gingrich: 'It is more dangerous to be black in America'

Newt Gingrich, a potential running mate for Donald Trump, did a Facebook Live conversation about the Dallas shootings with CNN commentator Van Jones.

He said white Americans don't understand what it's like to be black, and that you have to raise your children differently than white parents.

GINGRICH- "It is more dangerous to be black in America. It is more dangerous because of crime which is the Chicago story. But it is more dangerous in that you're substantially more likely to be in a situation where police don't respect you. I think sometimes it's difficult for whites to appreciate how real that is. .... If you are a normal white American, truth is you don't understand being black in America."
