March 9, 2018

Legislatively Speaking By Lena C. Taylor It seems like every year or so, someone puts out a study on Stop and Frisk. They’ve done their research and the findings are always the same.

Trump’s Kangaroo White House

March 9, 2018

Do You Hear What the Children Are Saying?

Exposing the Gun Culture’s False Narrative

March 3, 2018
