Deconstruct explores the American dependency on their police presence, noting the different myths that cultivate a sense of "vivid paranoid imagination" that makes us feel a perpetual mortal danger that causes folks to feel codependent towards cops. We explore the origins of American police in a country that once functioned without them, as well as the billion dollar industries depending on a hyper-militarized punitive system to maintain their profits and influence.

With this context, we'll take some time to imagine what a society would look like without a police department, through the lens of a radical sense of trust in our neighbors and the human capability of changing for the better.
