Join LWVP for "New Models for Social Justice: Police Reform Q&A, Part I" with Piedmont Police Chief Jeremy Bowers and Supervising Deputy Attorney General Nancy Beninati.
Speakers will discuss potential policy changes in law enforcement to ensure fairness, justice and more constructive outcomes for our society as a whole. In the aftermath of George Floyd’s death, a national conversation is underway about police department reform. Many questions have been raised about: use of force, racial profiling, police training, defunding or eliminating police in schools, the role of police in nonviolent situations, racial injustice and social inequity, and the role of our own community in the national conversation.
Speakers will present from 4:00 - 4:35 followed by Q & A moderated by Lorrel Plimier, President of LWVP. There is no advance registration. If you are unable to join via Zoom, please watch on Facebook. Participants may submit questions through the Zoom chat feature, Facebook, or email to lwvpiedmont@gmail.org.
This Community Conversation is free and open to the public.
