Today on Midday, a church's reckoning on race. In September, the Maryland diocese of the Episcopal Church committed to making reparations for slavery by creating a fund to support initiatives in the African American community. 

Rev. Eugene Taylor Sutton, the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland, joins Tom to discuss the role that a fund for reparations will play in how the church is repenting for its complicity in slavery and segregation.
