3:3 Police Shootings: What Can Be Done?
Manage episode 309553084 series 3035523
We rarely include police shootings in the ongoing discussion about America's gun violence epidemic. Power dynamics and racial biases often create false choices that further isolate police shootings from the broader conversation. Stephanie and Dujie discuss the divide between community and police in interviews with Seattle Police Department Lieutenant Adrian Diaz, former King County Sheriff and current principal of Washington's Police Academy Sue Rahr, criminal justice reform activist Nikkita Oliver, and Community Passageways founder Dominique Davis. We wrap up the episode with De-escalate Washington campaign manager Riall Johnson, who offers a way out of this mess through one of our very favorite things -- collective action.
