Live at Trye Nicols rally. Listen to various people's perspectives on policing in America. Historically, racist policing, unlawful arrests, and excessive force have plagued America, and the murder of Tyre Nichols should remind us that police violence still remains a problem that must be addressed. From the local, state, to federal levels, we must demand accountability and face the TRUTH that we have a toxic culture of policing.

Mokah Speaks: Breaking the Cycle of Discrimination and Racism. Can the cycle of discrimination be broken? Despite what people want to believe racism and discrimination never ended and racial incidents continue to happen every day not just in Starbucks, Waffle House, Santa Monica College or even more recently in Alpharetta when Officer James Legg dragged a 65-year-old black lady out of the car because she would not sign a ticket. From my perspective, these incidents occurred because of racial biases and my question is can the cycle of discrimination and racism be broken?
