Cincinnati still grapples with boycott after riots year on
A year after Timothy Thomas was shot by Cincinnati police and protests erupted, a citywide boycott aims to spur social change but strains the economy. Black activists press for police accountability and a subpoena power for a citizens review panel while some in the black business community warn the boycott harms jobs. Notables like Bill Cosby and Whoopi Goldberg canceled Cincinnati appearances, hurting downtown business and city revenue.
