Encounter
AFTER FERGUSSON PART II Elsie Scott, Howard University’s Founding Director of the Ron W. Walters Leadership and Public Policy Center and Malik Aziz, Chairman of the National Black Police Association, discuss with host Carol Castiel how the grand jury decisions not to charge the white police officers in the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases and the protests they sparked mark a major turning point in the United States which will require serious reforms to the grand jury system, concerted efforts to diversify the make-up of local police forces, more judicial use of deadly force, and greater community participation in local politics, among many other reforms/changes.
