Montgomery Leaders Reduce Violence by Investing in Community-Led Safety Strategies

Описание к видео Montgomery Leaders Reduce Violence by Investing in Community-Led Safety Strategies

On Juneteenth, we commemorate Black Americans’ freedom from centuries of slavery. But we must also acknowledge the ways in which the criminal legal system has been used to oppress, control, and harm Black communities, and we must embrace new safety strategies that promote the health and well-being of all.

Montgomery, Alabama, the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement, recognizes the harm that overreliance on punishment and incarceration has wrought on Black people and is building a new approach to safety that prevents crime through community-led partnerships.
