Council Takes Up Equality Indicators Tonight

The Tulsa City Council will take up the Equality indicators again tonight. The council will hear from the public on the race and gender of people arrested.

Tonight's meeting is at City Hall. It is part of the 5 pm council meeting.

The report shows Blacks in Tulsa are twice as likely to be arrested as Whites. It also shows Black females are almost three times as likely to be arrested as White women.
