I️n this episode Weeze and Chris talk about what it means to defund, abolish, reconstruct, and reimagine the policing system. We all know the institution of police is not answering the needs of the people. It’s a system that’s heavily funded, backed by legislation, and damn near impossible to hold police accountable. What would it look like to reallocate funds so we’re investing in social services like crisis response teams? What if marginalized communities had agency, power, and control over how this new institution was reimagined? What if we poured the obnoxious budget the police system gets into education, health care, affordable housing, workforce development, job opportunities with livable wages, etc.? What if we looked at how we police each other on a daily basis and restructured that too? Listen in!!!

ABOUT WEEZE

Louiza Doran, known and referred to as Weeze, is a cis-het Amazigh* female-identifying human who uses she/her/they/them pronouns. She’s known as a coach, podcast host, advocate, agent of change, strategist, and educator (to name a few) but is ultimately a compassionate provocateur that is out to help folks uncover their path of possibility.

ABOUT CHRIS

Chris Mueller is a communicator by nature, strategist by training, and organizer at heart directing the firm's creative design and storytelling studio. Born and raised in the East Bay, he studied at UC Berkeley and has over a decade of storytelling experience for progressive organizations in human rights, and social and economic justice. He will happily discuss everything from Frederick Douglass and Joseph Campbell to DMX and the World Champion Golden State Warriors.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT

  • The reality of police union lobbying power how much money they spend at the municipal level to pass police friendly legislation.
  • How the George Floyd Justice and Policing Act is trying to allocate hundreds of millions of dollars to police training and reform that we know doesn't work!
  • We have to get more surgical about the way police union contracts are written because there are amendments and line items that make it difficult to hold police accountable.
  • How affluent whyte communities experience police vs. marginalized communities.
  • What it means to defund, abolish, and reconstruct the police system.
  • Abolition as a way for us to rid ourselves of how we police each other.
  • The connection between police reform and gun control, and what we need to address.
  • ICE now offering classes to teach everyday citizens how to arrest immigrants!
  • Orienting ourselves toward accomplishing equity and justice on a systemic level.
