‘What About Us, Who Are Both Black and Blue?’

Sarah Best

26th April 2021

This short video from the New York Times highlights some of the complex issues surrounding policing and racism in the United States. There is an interview with a female, black officer who feels caught in the middle of something which is much bigger than "them vs us".

The video could be used for Crime and Deviance (policing).
