Welcome to "Unequal by Design," part of the Morris Perspective Podcast, where host Connie Morris delves into the troubling history and present reality of policing in America. This episode, titled "Policing the Block: How Safety Became a Privilege," uncovers how the policing system was created not to ensure universal safety but to maintain control over marginalized communities.
Morris traces the evolution of American policing back to slave patrols and explores how these origins have influenced modern law enforcement practices that disproportionately target Black and Brown communities. The episode highlights how safety has become a privilege rather than a right, with policing strategies focused more on surveillance and control than on protection.
The conversation seeks to redefine safety beyond policing, advocating for a shift towards community-centered care, accountability, and investment in preventive strategies as pathways to truly equitable protection. Tune in to explore how communities are actively working to reclaim safety as a collective right, emphasizing the need for reform, transparency, and redesign of our current systems.
