His attacks on Bragg aren't business as usual. By Symone D. Sanders-Townsend "I knew that this famous man was calling for us to die."   Those were the words of Yusef Salaam from a 2016 interview with The Guardian, speaking about an advertisement that a then up-and-coming media mogul named Donald Trump took out in four newspapers across New York City in 1989 targeting Salaam and four other Black and Latino teenagers who would be wrongly convicted of raping a white female jogger in New York City.   On Tuesday, former President Trump is scheduled to be arraigned in New York City in the same courthouse where the Exonerated Five (formerly referred to as the Central Park Five) were wrongly convicted.  That's not the only theme that has come back into play during the current Trump investigations and the recent indictment by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. The former president has a pattern and a playbook.   This is a preview of Symone D. Sanders-Townsend's latest article. Read the full column here. TRUMP INDICTED: ANALYSIS MICHAEL A.
