That means at least one of every eight members the citys force has been influenced by the methods of an occupying apartheid entity.

Though progressives lost some momentum with the stalling-out of the Sanders campaign, the most recent batch of primaries, in states like New Mexico and Pennsylvania, have seen them notch significant wins at the state and local level

A Dundee mural depicting the man allegedly murdered by an American police officer has been defaced. Dundee graffiti artist Symon Mathieson, also known as SYKE, had shown his support for the Black Lives Matter movement by painting a portrait of George Floyd in the Hilltown.

This dichotomy leaves me in anguish, as cities across the nation burn in protest, rage and grief against Floyds death and centuries of racial inequity, all against the backdrop of a pandemic
