Discussion #5: Can policing be reformed?

Note to tutor: Please only use the assigned article that I attached, Do Not use any outside sources! Thank you.
You also need to replay to two classmates, I will provide you with that.
The murder of George Floyd, as well as all the other people of color who lost their lives to police violence, has led some to call for an abolition or defunding of policing in the United States, though these positions are often misunderstood. Read the article below and respond to the following questions:
1) Do you agree or disagree with Kaba and Richie’s position on policing in America? Why or why not?
2) What do you think can be done to reduce police violence towards communities of color, as well as disproportionate arrest rates?
3) What alternative models of public safety can you envision?
