Durham, N.C
based filmmaker and activist Katina Parker, has begun again, as she did last
year, the “Many Voices” Video Campaign series of short videos, which highlights LGBT justice
issues.

“Many Voices” is a Black church movement for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender justice, and the videos, the first of which was released
last week, will feature LGBT-affirming African American clergy from the South.

The 3
subjects, all based in North Carolina, will, as Ms. Parker says “speak
candidly and courageously about their desire to create a church experience that
welcomes all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity” and her aim is to“capture
experiences from voices of faith that undermine the misconception that Black
pastors are monolithically homophobia.”

And she adds
that “as a filmmaker, an activist,
an out lesbian, and someone who grew up in the Black church, it isrelated to possessing a handgun and drug charges, police said.

Police saw Wells and Wallace driving to complete a drug deal around 7:40 p.m. Tuesday, police said. Officers stopped the car at the 1900 block of West Street.

Wells fled from the car, but was arrested by officers. He had two, half gram bags of suspected heroin on him, police said. Wallace stayed in the car and officers found he had a loaded handgun on him.

Wells had an active warrant for violation of probation in another drug distribution case. He is being held on $25,000 bond at the Jennifer Road Detention Center. Wallace is being held at the Jennifer Road Detention Center on $3,000 bond.

The operation was conducted by city police's Flex Unit and Maryland State Police Gang Enforcement Unit
