Low income neighborhoods face higher crime rates (domestic violence, robbery, arson) yet they are also unsafe because the NYPD harasses civilians instead of protecting them from actual criminals.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
-
Training program for NYPD officers to specifically look for crime, not stereotypes. There should also be info sessions for individuals of low-income neighborhoods to navigate the legal system to avoid being harassed by cops.
