    by The Black Wall Street Times July 23, 2020
    by The Black Wall Street Times July 23, 2020

    “Our chief of police has stated he will not allow community input in developing the new use of force policies for TPD; Chief Wendell Franklin’s decision is rife with hypocrisy,” says Dr. Tiffany Crutcher.

    by The Black Wall Street Times February 29, 2020
    by The Black Wall Street Times February 29, 2020
