As a New Yorker, I remember the term “stop and frisk” becoming a controversial topic referring to how the NYPD treated “suspicious” characters on City streets. Nowadays, Presidential hopeful Michael Bloomberg is apologizing for a policy that some call pure “racial profiling.” But was it? What is it now? On this episode, I ask NYPD officer, and the founder of Blue Lives Matter NYC, Joseph Imperatrice what “stop and frisk” really means. Turns out, there is no “stop and frisk” as we know it. There’s way more to this debate than we thought ... and Officer Imperatrice is not afraid to tell you why!
