Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders sought Monday to shore up support among minority voters as he battles front-runner Hillary Clinton ahead of next week's New York primary.
During a campaign rally in Albany, N.Y., Sanders discussed a lack of jobs for African-American and Hispanic youth, a "broken" criminal justice system and images of unarmed people being killed by police.
"We have got to put an end to that," Sanders said, alluding to an issue he's raised in ads mentioning Eric Garner, the black man whose police-involved chokehold death in 2014 in Staten Island sparked protests.
"I do not want people, people of color, walking the streets, fearful of what may happen to them," Sanders said. "This is America. We can do better than that."
