Baltimore, there are moments when history doesn’t just happen — it’s made. And right now, one of our own is making it. Sabrina Tapp-Harper is running for Sheriff of Baltimore City. If elected, she would become the first woman to ever hold the office. Let that sit for a moment. This is not an outsider. This is not a newcomer. This is a Baltimore native — Dunbar High School, Coppin State University, Johns Hopkins University. This is a woman with over 34 years in law enforcement who retired from the Baltimore City Police Department as a Major, became the first Black commander of the Northern District, and then went on to become the highest-ranking woman in the history of the Baltimore City Sheriff’s Office as Assistant Sheriff. She has led the Domestic Violence Unit. She has been published in Police Chief magazine. She has served as a fellow with the International Association of Chiefs of Police. She has taught at Baltimore City Community College. She has done the work — not for the cameras, but for the community. Now she’s asking Baltimore to stand with her. And BMORENews.com is asking you to answer that call. Support Sabrina Tapp-Harper’s campaign for Baltimore City Sheriff. Donate what you can. Share this post. Tell somebody. This is how we change the landscape — one bold, qualified, faithful Black woman at a time. DONATE HERE Let’s make history.
