Across the United States of America, particularly in the aftermath of the shooting death of Mike Brown and the chocking death of Eric Garner, there’s the belief that the police are out to kill black men. In response to the ever-increasing tension between law enforcement and communities, President Barack Obama has appointed Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey to co-chair a Task Force on 21st Century Policing. Mr. Ramsey has less than 90 days to return a set of recommendations to Mr. Obama.
As all eyes turn towards Philadelphia, a special edition of Black and Bold Voices – a quarterly, online discussion featuring black men around the world and the issues that unite them, powered by Techbook Online and heard exclusively on The Dr. Vibe Show™ – welcomes prominent Philadelphians whose body of work spans the disciplines of policing, civilian oversight, advocacy, the prison industrial complex, technology and improving the public perception of black men.
In this edition of Black and Bold Voices™, the guests were: Kelvyn Anderson, Executive Director, Philadelphia Police Advisory Commission; Greg Brinkley, Retired correctional officer, Graterford Prison; Shakeil Greeley, a 21 year-old senior attending the University of Pennsylvania who was the organizer of The Trail Of Silence Walk; Anton Moore, a South Philadelphia activist; Isaiah Thomas, candidate for Philadelphia City Council; Journalist Christopher Norris, CEO, Techbook Online; and Dr. Vibe, international broadcast journalist, for a live, 1 hour conversation on “Black Men, Police Officers and a Post-Ferguson America.”
Our final conversation of 2014, “Black Men, Police Officers and a Post-Ferguson America,” will take a look at how and why cities should diversify its police forces, what training methods or oversight programs can be implemented to minimize racial bias in policing and what does community policing look like in the 21st century, particularly with the use of technology.
The program agenda was as follows:
– A panel discussion, “Justifiable Fear?: Is it open season on black men/Do black men have a reason to be scared of the police?”
