Law enforcement officials will talk about training, de-escalation or community outreach. They'll talk about unity. What they won't do is engage on the reasons Black Nebraskans are 6x more likely to be arrested for marijuana use in Lancaster County.https://journalstar.com/news/state-and-regional/nebraska/aclu-black-people-more-likely-than-whites-in-nebraska-to-be-arrested-for-possessing-marijuana/article_c140fe7e-2e6d-5f75-acd6-7e7b4c5c4238.html …
Or they might point to "economic factors" to explain why their agencies are more likely to pull over, search and arrest Black Nebraskans.https://journalstar.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/aclu-racial-disparities-in-nebraska-traffic-stops-signal-need-for-new-police-training/article_b39bdf71-5917-554f-8de2-fe865ca38bc7.html …
All the while, they'll talk about running lean and ask for more resources as they make up huge portions of our city and county budgets.https://journalstar.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/feds-grant-lincoln-money-to-hire-more-officers-but-whether-mayor-will-accept-remains-unclear/article_d515445c-470e-5ff0-9919-a0ea1977c674.html#tracking-source=home-top-story-1 …
The meeting is set for 12:30 PM: https://lincoln.ne.gov/city/council/common/index.htm …
Tell elected officials we need reform and we need to start investing in services that make our communities healthier and safer - not keep increasing police budgets.
