Reevaluating Public Safety and Policing
This chapter examines the disconnect between public perceptions of safety threats and the real systemic issues like wage theft and environmental violations that affect communities. It critiques the media's sensationalized focus on specific incidents, such as murders, while neglecting the historical and ongoing challenges of policing, especially in marginalized communities. The discussion encourages a deeper understanding of police reform, accountability, and the pressing need for systemic change in law enforcement practices.
