Connecting the Disconnect: The Broken Link (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798886543582)

While the direction of policing is at a crossroad and we struggle to find fixes, there are issues we have ignored for years that have sown the seeds for the conflicts between police and the community. Connecting the Disconnect: The Broken Link, sought to point out some of these issues. The concepts shared are in no way the ultimate 'blueprint' to correct the existing problems between our community and law enforcement; instead, it is intended to bring an awareness to those who are lacking a cultural and socioeconomic understanding and the complexities and challenges it brings to our social relationship when interacting with other members within a certain group. This is solely an assessment from real life experiences that hopefully will have the intended result of bringing about some level of connection, or empathy if you will, between groups in order to diminish bias beliefs and bridge the gap that has disrupted our society for years gone and those to come.
