Closed out Day 1 of the National Conference on Gun Violence by reminding the audience that gun violence intersects with poverty, homelessness, and oppression. SYSTEMS CREATE SYMPTOMS—so we must reimagine them to serve the most vulnerable. #SystemsChange

Homelessness in America is reaching historic levels, yet solutions remain stalled. This isn't just a policy failure—it's a moral one. We must prioritize housing as a human right. #EndHomelessness #HousingFirst 🌟
BREAKING: The U.S. saw an 18.1% increase in homelessness this year, with more than 770,000 people counted as homeless. apnews.com/article/homelessn…

All charges against officer Mark Dial were dismissed in the death of Eddie Irizarry. A judge ruled there wasn't enough evidence to stand trial. trib.al/pEQiGYN

Congrats to @Antoine_Lovell, GSS '22, who was recently awarded a grant of up to $225,000 from @TrinityWallSt to investigate risk factors among homeless emerging/young adults by using historical data from NYC public school students and ACS.

There’s so much that we’ve learned in using spatial and GIS to predict and prevent crime — but we need to ensure we routinely identify and eliminate bias at every turn of development. #NIJ2023

“The way people are living today - I’m talking about resources or more accurately lack thereof - is by design. We have to mindful that a lot of what we’re doing in spatial analysis has disparate and harmful consequences.” -Dr. Tracie Keesee @PolicingEquity #NIJ2023

@saintlouismayor administration brought a holistic approach to public safety challenges, relying on more than police to meet the needs of the people. STL police should REMAIN in local hands. CPE's own @hmenos on what true public safety looks like in STL👉

We are thrilled w/the grassroots public safety redesign work happening in St. Louis! 💯 💯 💯 "It gives us an opportunity to make the table bigger, to bring more people into this issue and to do things a different way...” 👈 THAT'S RIGHT! #MondayMotivation ksdk.com/article/news/crime/…

My mood walking into the capital today as we get ready to discuss local control of St. Louis City police. #MoLeg
Dr. Hans Menos retweeted
A #moleg takeover of SLMPD is about power and politics - not public safety.
Replying to @PolicingEquity
"There is a common thread of the cities that I am aware of where this is happening. Where there has been a concerted attempt to strip power away from local leadership, the mayors are Black.” @saintlouismayor

Missouri state legislature has introduced a bill (SB 78) that would strip the democratically elected leadership of #StLouis of its rightful control over the city's police force and overturn the 2012 vote to return St. Louis policing to local control.
Dr. Hans Menos retweeted
The bill comes in response to grassroots efforts to realign the city's #publicsafety systems to meet community needs. If passed, the bill would establish a board of police commissioners and prevent the city from "interfering" with the powers of said board.
Dr. Hans Menos retweeted
The people closest to the issues should have the right to determine the solutions. If you're a STL resident, let your legislators know that the people of the city have a right to determine their own destiny: bit.ly/3M7PNQP.
@PastorCarlDay expresses support for the #drivingequitybill “as a black man I’ve definitely been targeted by police”. @PolicingEquity works every day to eliminate the use of pre-textual stops and stops for low level traffic offenses

We remember #TrayvonMartin—who would’ve been 28 years old today. He had goals & ambitions & should still be alive to see them come to fruition. On his birthday we remember how precious life is, how committed to change we all must be, & why the work of justice is so crucial.
