This course is designed to provide research-based responses to the fundamental question, “Why is Racial Profiling this vicious circle where law enforcement often sees things differently than the communities they serve?” Our communities, law enforcement professionals and politicians are divided on what constitutes Racial Profiling, a phenomenon that has become a poison for our communities. This course is based on established research by academic experts, on how various interpretations of racial profiling affect the cultures of our communities. Results of research are selected to support each assertion that is claimed in support or in negation of racial profiling. Can racial profiling be detrimental in law enforcement officers’ efforts to protect the community they serve? Absolutely! Is there research and evidence in support of “good racial profiling” that had prevented and can prevent damage from reaching the community? Of course!
Participants will discuss the politics and practices that produced racial profiling over several decades, and what tools and practices communities can use to confront and eliminate it, thus creating a more harmonious environment where law enforcement is trusted to protect its citizens and were the citizens fully participate in “Community-Oriented Policing.”
(This course was designed with educational materials and contribution of Kansas City Missouri Police Chief Darryl Forté. We thank Chief Darryl Forté for his contribution.)
