I hope you tuned in this week when
President Barack Obama joined us for a conversation with filmmaker Ava DuVernay about his bestselling memoir “A Promised Land.” But if you weren’t able to attend the streaming event Wednesday, never fear: Watch this special book club event here.
Obama talked about leadership, failure, activism and police reform, which he says begins with reimagining the role of law enforcement.
“What does it mean for a community to be safe?” Obama asked during the book club conversation. “For most of our history, policing in the African American community has meant just keeping a lid on things and keeping control and maintaining barriers and boundaries, rather than actually serving those communities.”
