Today on KRCU’s Going Public, we’re talking about race and policing in America with Dr. Raleigh Blasdell, an assistant professor of criminal justice and sociology at Southeast Missouri State University. We’ll talk about the recent event ‘Community Policing: The Intersection of Black and Blue Lives Matter’ and the value of open dialogue between law enforcement and the community. We’ll also talk about what research says about racial bias in our current system of law enforcement, and how the Cape Girardeau Police Department fits into this national conversation.
