This is how we build safe and strong communities. Building relationships and trust. Sharing resources and providing access to resources is how we support members vulnerable communities.

Not mass incarceration or state sanctioned violence.

I'm happy to share my new op-ed where I contribute to the ongoing discussion around placing armed officers in schools in the wake of recent mass shootings across the U.S. I argue that we should seriously reconsider putting cops in schools.
