Episode Description
Police violence is one of the most observable manifestations of structural racism in the US, but is addressing this a matter of finding the "bad actors" or rethinking the system altogether? Guest host Dr. Daniel Webster, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Prevention and Policy, talks with Tracey Meares, professor of law and founding director of The Justice Collaboratory at Yale Law. They discuss why America's approach to public safety must be examined, how some jurisdictions are implementing change, and suicide prevention.
