In part one of this two-part episode, Sherrilyn Ifill of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc., Barry Friedman, New York University Law professor and director of NYU’s Policing Project, and John Malcolm of the Heritage Foundation begin their exploration of the intersection of race and policing in the United States. They discuss history of race relations in the U.S., and the resulting impact on law enforcement practices; the role of first responders, and if police officers are the right people to fill that role; and implementing effective training programs.
Listen as these experts, who currently are on the front lines (an advocate and civil rights lawyer, a civil liberties lawyer whose current work is with communities and police departments, and the director of a think tank tasked with increasing government officials', the media's, and the public's understanding of the Constitution and the rule of law), discuss new policing technologies, as well as new theories about public policy that may help shape the future of race and policing.
