I wanted to share a series I've been working on. Research to shed light on this moment. Hang on to your hats, here comes a thread.
A live chat from last week with 4 researchers who work on social upheaval and policing. It's 1h long and well worth your time.
With @mearest, @VeslaWeaver, @elizabhinton, and @TimNewburn, all of whom you should follow. https://www.annualreviews.org/shot-of-science/event/racial-justice-policing-and-protest

By the way, this op-ed is by @elizabhinton and you should read it: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/06/opinion/prisons-colleges-education.html
And @VeslaWeaver wrote this up based on her recent work. Enlightening stuff, please read it as well: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/06/17/we-listened-people-highly-policed-us-communities/
Let's keep going.
This is a Q&A with @EngagedScholar on the consequences of street clashes: "Trust in government is likely to be impacted, especially for those connected with the population being policed." https://www.annualreviews.org/shot-of-science/story/consequence-of-street-clashes

Racism is a factor in public opinion because we do everything from allowing it to cultivating it. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Frank Munger and Carroll Seron's work is here to remind us all that racism in the U.S. is embedded in the law. It is a policy problem (read also @DrIbram on this).
We need to put pressure on our elected officials to change this sorry state of affairs. https://www.annualreviews.org/shot-of-science/story/racism-roots-in-law

Today's installment is by @blkprofcct + @blackbruin.

This thread will be updated with the pieces we're working on (at least 2 more to come).
Suffice it to say that I'm in awe of our authors. Their research is implacable, and they're not mincing words.
