“There's been a lot of talk about body cameras as a silver bullet or a solution. I think the task force concluded that there is a role for technology to play in building additional trust and accountability, but it's not a panacea, it has to be embedded in a broader change in culture and a legal framework that ensures that people's privacy is respected and that not only police officers but the community themselves feel comfortable with how technologies are being used.” PeopleThinkingFeelsPlayBodyUsedCultureForceChangeCommunityRolesTechnologyBuildingComfortableSolutionsTasksPoliceCamerasPrivacySilverAccountabilityOfficersBulletsFrameworkPolice OfficerEmbeddedPanaceaTask ForcesSilver Bullets Author:Barack Obama

“When we ask Negroes to abide by the law, let us also declare that the white man does not abide by law in the ghettos. Day in and day out he violates welfare laws to deprive the poor of their meager allotments; he flagrantly violates building codes and regulations; his police make a mockery of law; he violates laws on equal employment and education and the provisions of civil services. The slums are the handiwork of a vicious system of the white society; Negroes live in them, but they do not make them, any more than a prisoner makes a prison.” MenDoeLawAsksWhitePoorBuildingEqualPolicePrisonEmploymentCodeWelfarePrisonerRegulationWhite ManViciousProvisionGhettoMockerySlumsHandiworkCivil ServiceAllotments Book:The Trumpet of Conscience Source: The Trumpet of Conscience
“Kids are growing up in communities in which they see their loved ones cycling in and out of prison and in which they are sent the message in countless ways that they, too, are going to prison one way or another.

“How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building; don't police the world.

“I gathered all of the Jewish mukhtars, who have contact with Arabs in different villages and asked them to whisper in the ears of some Arabs that a great Jewish reinforcement has arrived in Galile and that it is going to burn all of the villages of the Huleh. They should suggest to these Arabs, as their friends, to escape while there is still time... The tactic reached its goal completely.
