This would require all police officers to receive racial profiling and implicit bias training AND restrict police use of deadly force.

Voting Rights Case: The United States federal government should ban voter disenfranchisement on the grounds of criminal conviction.		Justice in Policing Case: Reducing police violence, restricting use of force, both of which disproportionately impact Black men.

Voting Rights Case: Increase political participation - focused on disproportionate impact by race, and eliminate prison-based gerrymandering.		Defund the Police CP (written as an answer to Justice in Policing case),

Body Cameras violate privacy and make victims re-live traumatic events

White, Booz Allen Hamilton, 2014

Michael, PHD, Prison Policy, Police Officer Body Worn Cameras, Assessing the evidence 

https://www.prisonpolicy.org/scans/Police_Officer_Body-Worn_Cameras.pdf

Body-worn cameras create citizen privacy concerns. Although civil rights advocates have generally supported the use of body-worn cameras by police (Stanley 2013), the impact of the technology on citizen privacy is not fully understood. Federal and state laws regarding the expectation of privacy place some restrictions on using audio and video recording. Moreover, body worn cameras capture in real time the traumatic experiences of citizens who are victims of crime, who are involved in medical emergencies and accidents, and who are being detained or arrested. Recording these events may exacerbate citizens’ trauma. In their model policy template (see Appendix B), the Body Worn Video Steering Group cautions law enforcement agencies about the collateral intrusion of the technology, particularly with regard to religious sensitivities, intimate searches, witnesses and confidential informants, victims, and communications governed by legal privilege. More research is needed. 


Privacy violations must be resisted
