Beschreibung

Stop and frisk, the controversial policing method, has been a point of discussion for Philadelphia community members impacted by violence. Some want to see it visibly enforced and others are against it. The history of stop and frisk in Philly has been dark. Far too often it has been used as a tool of racial profiling. But as the incidents of gun violence skyrocket, stronger enforcement of the dubious tactic is being floated as a potential solution. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Episode Political Will Cover

Political Will

Stop and frisk is a divisive topic in Philadelphia, with political implications. Gun violence and public safety are bound to be central campaign topics in the upcoming 2023 mayoral election, and candidates are already talking about policing practices. Former Mayor Michael Nutter explains why he supports stop and frisk, and current mayoral candidates share their perspectives on public safety. Meanwhile, residents, including children, continue to take to the streets to decry the lack of coordination between the Philadelphia Police Department, City Hall, the District Attorney’s Office, and community organizations tackling the crisis. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
