- After the demonstrations wane and the cable news channels move on to the next big story, the problem of unequal justice will still be with us. How do we address unequal justice in America long term?
- The mother of 12 year Tamir Rice seeks a wrongful death lawsuit inCleveland.
- A Missouri bar owner offered his apologies for a “ special” available at his bar, which offered six shots of tequila for $10. The number was apparently in reference to the times the unarmed black teen was shot by a white police officer in the suburban St. Louis area.
