About this series

At this pivotal moment in our nation’s history, advocates, policymakers, law enforcement, and community leaders around the country have raised concerns about policing and public safety. Recent events have sparked a broad national reckoning around long-standing issues related to race, public safety, and policing in America. How did we get here, and how do we make sure diverse voices are included in finding solutions? John Jay College of Criminal Justice and the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) held six conversations to reimagine the future of public safety and redefine the role of policing in America today.
