Episode 11: History and Relationships of Policing (Part 1)


Listen Later

In this week’s episode, our special guest, Professor Nathan Lopez discusses the history of policing from the 13th century until the 1990s. Given that we are in the United States, we focus specifically on capitalism and its connection with policing throughout centuries. Lopez critiques the structure of policing and lack of transparency and accountability-specifically in Los Angeles-given that is where he resides. Finally, he leaves us with a deeper understanding of the “American Dream” idea and belief. We hope you enjoy and subscribe to our Patreon for additional videos/episodes!
