Martha MacCallum: What Was Louis Farrakhan Doing at Aretha Franklin’s Funeral?

EXCERPT:

MACCALLUM: "There were some beautiful performances today at Aretha Franklin’s funeral in Detroit. The guests ranging from world leaders to musical legends and one especially controversial figure who was seated in the front row. Many people kind of wondering what the unapologetic antisemite Louis Farrakhan was doing up there. I’m joined by Kelly Jane Torrance, Marie Harf and Kylie Patterson. It was really moving, Jennifer Hudson was amazing and Gladys Knight was amazing, but I did keep finding myself distracted by Louis Farrakhan who was in every single shot. What was he doing there? Who wants to start there?"
