Over the past three years, long-simmering tensions over racial injustice have erupted in the wake of George Floyd鈥檚 murder and other incidents of police treatment of Black citizens, according a study from the University of Alabama. These incidents have created political division and for people of color,鈥� according to the study. 91制片厂 also heard from our community partners that addressing mental health issues in Cleveland鈥檚 communities of color could potentially make a difference in people鈥檚 lives,鈥� said Marlene Harris-Taylor, director of Engaged Journalism.
