Beschrijving

The Black History Month 2023 theme, “Black Resistance," explores how African Americans in the U.S. have resisted oppression and fought for freedom. But what does that mean to members of the PennWest community? How are the ideas of resistance and resilience alive on campuses in 2023? Today on PennWest POV, we sit down with a panel of PennWest administrators and students to learn what Black History Month means to them, how they find the strength to resist and success and who has inspired them to press on.

S1E8: Serving those who serve

After a 10-yearcareer in law enforcement, Special Agent Ryan Spencer found his new calling – educating future police officers. And this isn’t just your average municipal or state police force. Spencer has spent nearly a decade educating law enforcement officers. He now works for the Department of Veterans Affairs – a force that is comprised of nearly 90% U.S. veterans. So what is the difference between VA police officers and your average community police? What sort of training is involved in this field? Special Agent Spencer joins us today on the podcast to discuss his career in law enforcement and how he discovered the human element of serving veterans. He also talks about how modern policing in Veterans Affairs involves a large percentage of social work techniques.
