Worldwide protests following the 2020 murder of George Floyd included calls to defund or abolish the police until a sharp rise in crime gave politicians and police supporters the fuel they needed to suppress the movement. Unfortunately, a detailed conversation about transforming public safety was never had. In Reimagining Safety, ten experts discuss how policing and incarceration create more harm than good, why the system persists, and what changes can be made to make everyone safe.
Interviews include:
George Gascón – Los Angeles County District Attorney
Dr. Jody Armour – The Roy P. Crocker Professor of Law at the University of Southern California
Dr. El Jones – professor and co-author of Defunding the Police – Planning the Way Forward for the HRM
Alex S Vitale – professor, law enforcement expert, and author of End of Policing
Gina Viola – former LA Mayoral candidate who ran on an abolition platform
Nikki Blak – Sociologist, anti-racism educator, and Inglewood born and raised
Hawk Newsome – co-founder of Black Lives Matter NY and Black Opportunities
Jose Gutierrez – Licensed social worker, therapist, and Restorative Justice practitioner
