In this clip, listen as two Black police officers dialogue about community connections. They begin their discussion with what it looked like to have community members pull away from the department during the racial justice protests. They are both putting together groups in order to address what policing looks like and how, internally, police officers can connect in order to better help their communities. It is all about forming authentic connections with one another.
I feel like there’s an inauthentic and an authentic beacon above their noggins… Come back when your ‘why’ is correct and when you’re doing this work not for the money or the status but because it’s the right thing to do.
