Video: Spike Lee Interview With Bernie Sanders

Spike Lee sat down with Bernie Sanders.

The two men, who both hail from Brooklyn and share a strong admiration for the borough, met for the first time in New York this week. The high-profile director and Sanders supporter spoke with the Democratic presidential hopeful for an interview published by The Hollywood Reporter on Wednesday.

Lee, who announced his endorsement of Sanders in February, questioned the candidate in a candid interview on a number of topics including gun violence, black voters and “entertainer” Donald Trump. He also asked Sanders outright what Black Lives Matter means to him.
