DeKALB –
NIU faculty, students, staff and local law enforcement officials convened Wednesday virtually to discuss policing, police reform and community relations.
The Police Discussion Panel was sponsored by the Latino Resource Center, the Center for Latino and Latin American studies, the Center for Black Studies, and Military and Veteran Services. Luis Santos-Rivas, director of the Latino Resource Center, served as the moderator for the event.
The meeting included a visual aid presentation from panelist Simón Weffer, associate professor and director of undergraduate studies for the Sociology department. He discussed several high-profile cases of “police violence,” a term that he says broadens the definition of “police brutality.”
