It's been ten years since the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO. I recently stopped by Point Black #STL Radio Show to discuss the role and effectiveness of consent decrees (like the one initiated in #Ferguson) to address police misconduct.

I'm excited about this opportunity. If you are in the #Milwaukee, #Wisconsin area, get your tickets today! https://lnkd.in/edR4kD7G

"We can see that law enforcement did not utilize the training that is now mandated under state law when it comes to de-escalation when it comes to crisis intervention techniques, trainings, and even when it comes to just, in general, implicit bias and how you engage with people that have a different lived experience than your own." - Carlton Mayers II, Esq. on #CBNnews

I was able to serve as a co-sponsor for the Legal Action Center “No Health = No Justice” Ional Convening, "The Future of Health and Justice: Bridging and Building Movements." The gathering of more than 100 community leaders including directly-impacted individuals, advocates, and providers was held in Atlanta, GA and featured panels and discussions. It was presented in partnership with the Alabama Justice Initiative, Black Lives Matter Paterson, RestoreHER, the Illinois Alliance for Reentry & Justice, the Jailhouse Lawyer Initiative, Lifeline to Success, Voices for a Second Chance, and Women on the Rise, The initiative's goal is to "ensure people are no longer criminalized or incarcerated for conditions related to their health or excluded from full participation in society because of a past arrest or conviction record."

The Wisconsin Policy Forum recently published the "Common Ground: Enhancing Community Oriented Policing in Milwaukee" report that focused on improving community-oriented policing and community engagement. Read my key takeaways.
