  • Emmy Award Winner Toussaint Morrison Stars in Movie “Black in Minneapolis” on all Streaming Platforms

    by the minneapolis egotist / October 24, 2020 /

    "Black In Minneapolis" is a modern-day Malcolm X story, told through the eyes of a black man who witnesses his brother’s murder by police during a routine traffic stop.
