(Baltimore, MD) Two Towson University students Ameena Ruffin and Korey Johnson, both from Baltimore, beat out 170 other teams to win a national debate championship held in Indiana this week.
The dynamic duo beat out a team from the University of Oklahoma in the final round. Their strong argument correlated police brutality, the prison-industrial complex and structural poverty issues to a warlike violence against African-Americans in the U.S. and identified solutions.
