How Policing Has — And Hasn’t — Changed In The Year Since George Floyd Was Murdered

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING In the year since a Minneapolis police officer killed George Floyd, a renewed national focus on police accountability, reform and reimagination has brought about a pivotal moment for activists who have long worked for change. The president can’t just magically change the police departments.” - DeRay Mckesson, civil rights activist Though many decisions in policing are made at the local level, the bill would introduce some key reforms, including requiring state and local law enforcement agencies that receive federal funding to use body-worn cameras. As The New York Times noted, the rule creates an extremely difficult burden for a plaintiff: If no other court has previously ruled in a case involving an essentially identical set of facts, the law is determined to be not “clearly established.” Qualified immunity has become a hot-button issue in the national discourse on police reform, with many activists saying that ending the doctrine is non-negotiable and must be part of whatever national policing legislation is passed. “This work will be local if it will be impactful,” he said, adding, “The president can’t just magically change the police departments, which was a good thing for us when Trump was president.. People should be infinitely more angry at their mayor, governor, legislature and city council. “It’s really this moment where it will look different in local jurisdictions.” Ultimately, experts said it remains to be seen which cities and states will serve as models for police reform.
