#BRokenPromises, Black Deaths, & Blue Ribbons : Understanding, Complicating, and Transcending Police-Community Violence
Files
Description
Many urban centres are shaken to their core with mistrust between communities and law enforcement. Erosion was exacerbated in the Obama-era, intensified during the 2016 campaign, and is violently manifested in Trump's presidency. The promise of uniting communities articulated by leaders lays broken. The text suggests that promise of prosperous and engaged urban citizenry will remain broken until we can honestly address the following unanswered questions: What factors contribute to the creation of divided communities? What happened to erode trust between community and law enforcement? What concerns and challenges do law enforcement officials have relating to policing within urban centers? What are the experiences of residents and police? And, finally, whose lives really matter, and how do we move forward?
