Host Kristen Anderson interviews Daniel Losen, the Director of Civil Rights Remedies at UCLA’s Civil Rights Project, about school policing’s contribution to the school-to-prison pipeline. Dan explains how it came to be that police were introduced into school systems, what the data has shown on the efficacy of these security measures, and what training is desperately needed for officers and administrators to improve these disturbing statistics. He then delves into what school districts should consider when revisiting their contracts with law enforcement and how we as defenders can be better prepared to represent students encountering police during school.
