''Tulsa is looking to use more than $1 million from the federal government earmarked for solving racially motivated cold cases. The city says it’s putting the funds toward education.

Tulsa was awarded the money through the U.S Department of Justice’s Emmett Till Cold Case program.

Till was a 14-year-old boy murdered in Mississippi in 1955 after he was accused of whistling at a white woman.'
