It
may
not
be
known
by
the
public,
but
the
Commission
has
an
interest
in
all
issues
related
to
community
police
relations,
particularly
in
those
issues
that
can
have
an
adverse
impact
on
intergroup
relations.
As
a
result,
this
panel
will
describe
for
us
what
is
being
done
to
ensure
ongoing
activities
in
the
city
to
strengthen
relationship
between
officers
and
the
community.
They
serve
each
speaker.
We
have
approximately
10
minutes
to
speak.
I
will
be
with
myself.
Commissioner
Smith
will
be
the
timekeeper
and
well
let
the
panelists
know
when
their
time
is
up.
B
D
And
we're
committed
to
that
and
it's
something:
that's
not
a
program
and
it's
something.
We
continue
to
tell
people
or
out
there
and
were
asked
that
question.
It's
not
a
program
for
us.
It's
a
philosophy,
it's
something
that
we
believe
in
it's
something.
The
first
question
I
got
when
I
was
put
in
his
the
acting
chief
in
November.
D
D
What
are
you
going
to
do
and
that's
the
first
thing
I
told
them
that
it's
got
to
be
something
that
you
believe
in
that
your
department's
got
to
believe
in
and
as
you
continue
to
to
do
it
and
spread
it
everybody's
going
to
believe
in
it
and
I
think
that's
something
that's
we've.
We've
lived
up
to
with
that
and
we
have
a
procedural
justice
unit
that
we
go
out
and
we've
gone
other
places
to
get
training
to
bring
back.
D
But
he's
he's
embraced
it
and
he's
a
good
teacher
and
I
think
you
were
just
out
of
pit
with
us
the
other
day
and
he's
just
phenomenal
with
it.
So
we've
assigned
him
to
the
Academy
and
actually
he's
been
a
detail
there
for
for
quite
a
while,
but
he's
going
to
be
transferred
there,
because
we
believe
that's
where
he
needs
to
be
to
continue
on
with
our
success
and
so
we're
committed
in
that
realm
and
we're
also
committed
to
showing
the
community
through
transparency,
what
we
teach
our
officers.
D
D
But
here's
one
of
the
brochures
we
put
out
or
just
put
out
through
commander
Lando
who's,
been
an
integral
part
of
the
procedural
justice
unit
is
a
an
instructor
himself,
but
we
can
put
out
to
the
community
so
they
can
see
what
it
is
and
what
is
procedural
justice?
What
is
legitimacy?
What
is
implicit
bias,
why
it's
important
to
train
the
community
in
that
and
with
the
four
pillars
of
the
procedural
justice
of
giving
people
a
voice,
neutrality,
respect
and
trustworthiness.
D
So
this
is
something
that,
as
I
said
in
the
beginning,
it's
not
something
that
we're
just
going
to
do,
and
it's
going
to
be
the
fad
for
the
day.
This
is
something
that's
being
ingrained
in
all
of
our
officers
in
everything
we
do
and
I
think.
This
is
just
another
example
of
our
level
of
commitment
to
staying
the
course
in
being
successful
with
it.
One
of
the
things
that
was
when
I
was
mr.
Torres,
the
University
of
Pittsburgh
School,
Social,
Work
Center
on
race
and
social
problems.
D
We
had
the
Chiefs
Institute
last
year
we
brought
people
together
and
with
the
procedural
justice
for
police
in
the
community
and
then
again
this
year.
We
had
that
again
where
we
had
the
this
year's
topic
was
tactical
perception
for
the
community
recognizing
biases,
and
that
was
just
held
this
week.
It
it
pit
so
we're
looking
at
everything
we
can
do
to
ensure
we
can
be
successful
and
the
community
can
be
successful
and
working
together
and
we've
done
a
lot
with.
As
you
know,
the
the
immigration
issue
has
been
a
huge
thing.
D
With
that
we've
worked
with
Alexis
and
we've
gone
to
for
welcoming
Pittsburgh
events
and
I
think
those
I
had
a
chance
to
go
to
all
for
in
you
know
more
to
come,
but
I
thought
that
was
incredible
because
you
had
members
of
law
enforcement
or
police
officers
from
each
of
the
zones
that
were
there
partnering
with
the
community
and
whether
document
or
undocumented,
together
to
see
what
the
issues
are
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
and
not
just
saying
what
they
are.
But
what
are
some
solutions
to
it?
D
And
for
me,
probably
one
of
the
most
exciting
things
about
that.
That
partnership
was
watching
our
officers
because
I
think
over
the
years,
I've
gotten
pretty
pretty
good
at
people's
facial
recognition
and
things
like
that
of
you
know:
are
they
there
just
because
they
they
have
to
be
there
or
are
they
there
because
they
want
to
be
there?
And
you
can
see
the
true
genuineness
of
our
officers
participating
in
that
and
you
know
seeing
our
officers
when
they
were
going
through
the
process.
D
At
the
end,
you
had
to
come
back
and
give
a
report
as
to
what
your
group
came
up
with,
and
our
officers
and
several
of
the
groups
over
the
before
were
asked
to
do
the
presentation
and
to
see
them
doing.
That
meant
a
lot
to
me
and
I.
Think
it's
it's
it's
something
that
we're
going
to
keep
doing.
You
know,
as
we
say,
every
place
we
go
I'll.
When
we
talk
about
it,
you
know
we
get
into
law
enforcement.
You.
A
D
D
The
only
thing
difference
is
we're
getting
paid
and
you're
asking
us
to
go
out
and
enforce
the
law
and
keep
the
community
safe,
but
to
be
successful,
we
have
to
do
it
together
and
I
think
the
more
we
can
get
together
with
the
community
and
stop
I,
don't
know
when
it
happened,
but
at
some
point
we
went
from
you
know,
protecting
and
serving
to
enforcing
and
the
service
part
kind
of
got
thrown
off
to
the
side.
And
that's
something
that's
important.
D
We
need
to
remember
that
we're
not
just
here,
you
know
to
enforce
the
law
and
protect
people
we're
here
for
the
serve
others
as
well
and
I.
Think
that's
something
that
when
people
look
at
police
officers,
stop
looking
at
the
simply
of
the
badge,
the
uniform,
the
patch
but
trying
to
get
to
know
the
officer
behind
that
uniform
and
in
the
same
respect
for
members
of
police
to
start
looking,
instead
of
looking
at,
you
know,
suspect
of
everybody.
D
That's
out
there
and
you
know
whether
they're
a
victim,
a
witness
or
an
actor,
but
really
seeing
that
that's
a
person
as
well
I
think
will
go
a
long
way
for
all
of
us
and
being
successful,
but
through
all
this
partnership
that
we've
done
so
many
I.
Could
this
right
here
is
just
some
of
the
things
we've
been
doing
with
in
a
city
of
Pittsburgh
with
our
police
in
the
partnership
with
the
community
over
the
last
couple
years?
D
And
when
you
go
to
those
events,
I
was
just
did
a
cop's
and
cops
and
cones
up
in
zone
six.
The
other
night
and
you
know
I,
would
have
still
went
even
though
if
it
wasn't
ice
cream,
but
the
ice
cream
was
delicious.
You
know,
but
when
you
see
that-
and
you
see
whether
the
coffee
with
a
cop
or
in
the
library
reading
going
to
the
schools
and
things
like
that,
the
more
you
can
get
out
there
and
more
the
police
get
to
know
the
officers
and
the
officers
get
to
know
members
of
the
community.
D
Then
you
start
to
like
you
know,
take
that
that
divide
down
that
wall
down
and
see
one
another
and
I
think
that's.
What's
making
us
successful
and
it's
something
that's
very,
very
important
for
us
to
continue
to
do
throughout
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
not
just
one
place,
so
that's
kind
of
where,
where
we're
at,
with
what
we've
been
doing,
it.
C
C
Denominator
that
will
bring
such
a
strong
entity.
An
important
entity
in
this
particular
city
of
Pittsburgh
overall
is
becoming
a
very
enriching
city,
a
city
of
notoriety
and,
of
course,
we're
trying
to
grow
even
more
to
be
that
much
more
diversified,
but
again
with
with
that,
is
always
going
to
be
some
form,
some
type
of
our
problems
and
a
growing
period,
but
give
us
your
your
spin
on
it.
E
I
know
that
today
we
have
cover
several
different
topics,
but
this
should
be
the
or
we
hope
you
will
be
the
first
of
many
hearings
that
will
allow
or
provide
a
platform
for
members
of
the
community
to
share
with
the
Commission
their
experiences,
not
only
with
law
enforcement,
but
other
city
services,
trash
collection,
snow
removal,
potholes,
streetlights,
sidewalk,
repairs,
EMTs
fire,
but
also
relationships
with
their
neighbors
relationships
with
their
employers,
relationships
with
their
landlords
or
or
tenants.
If
they
happen
to
be
a
landlord.
E
So
we're
very
interested
in
making
sure
that
we
continue
to
take
a
closer
look
at
all
the
different
aspects
of
not
only
services
but
relationships
that
members
of
the
communities
have
not
only
with
city
employees
but
with
each
other,
so
just
really
quickly
to
reference
of
Pittsburgh
city
code.
Six,
five:
three
point:
zero:
five:
if
we
talks
about
the
duties
that
the
Commission
talks
about
the
Commission
has
a
duty
to
study
and
investigate
by
means
of
public
hearings
or
otherwise
any
conditions
having
an
at
first
effect
on
intergroup
relationships
in
the
city.
E
Excuse
me
intergroup
relations
in
the
city
and
study
the
problems
of
prejudice,
intolerance,
bigotry
and
discrimination
and
how
it
affects
the
public
safety
and
general
welfare
of
everyone
in
the
city.
So
notice,
I,
didn't
say
anything
about
religious
denomination,
or
only
people
that
are
in
certain
countries
are
not
other
countries.
E
So,
as
you
may
know,
we
have
thirteen
protected
classes
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
everything
from
h2
ancestry
to
most
recently
survivors
of
domestic
violence
in
housing
transactions,
but
no
one
when
asking
or
receiving
city
services
should
experience
any
difference
in
treatment
because
of
the
way
they're
dressed
the
way
they
look
because
they
may
have
an
accident
like
I
do
because
they
may
not
speak
English
very
well.
They
have
small
children,
their
person
with
the
disability,
none
other
things
should
matter.
When
we're
talking
about
the
delivery
of
services.
E
We
have
been
very
fortunate
and,
as
the
chief
mentioned
earlier
this
week,
I
was
able
to
participate
in
one
of
the
trainings
from
the
police
department
and
I'm,
biased
and
I'm
prejudiced,
and
it
was
an
amazing
training.
I
learned
a
lot
of
things
about
myself.
That
I
didn't
realize,
but
it
was
very
enlightening
and
I
commend
the
police
department
for
this
continued
effort
on
making
sure
that
this
becomes
part
of
their
philosophy
is
not
just
oh
because
this
is
new.
Everyone
is
talking
about
it.
We
are
going
to.
You
know,
follow
the
trend.
E
New
recruits
are
learning
from
the
day
they
step
into
the
Academy
into
the
day
they
graduate
from
the
Academy.
So
that's
really
important.
The
commander
is
also
excuse
me.
The
chief
I'd
emoted
him
I
apologize.
The
chief
is
also
committed
in
working
with
the
Commission
in
the
month
of
July
and
on
the
Commission.
E
What
we
have
in
listening
sessions
out
in
the
different
police
zones-
and
this
is
not
specific
to
police
relationships
or
interactions
between
the
police
and
the
community,
but
this
is
going
to
be
an
opportunity
for
commissioners
again
to
listen
to
experiences
of
community
members
as
to
the
interactions
with
all
city
services.
So
we
designated
police
zones
because
we
know
what
they
are.
E
We
know
how
those
commanders
are,
and
it
is
a
particular
issue
to
a
zone
whether
it's
with
police
or
another
department
within
the
city
it'd
be
easy
to
narrow
that
focus
and
identify
the
resources
that
may
be
necessary
to
address
those
particular
issues.
So
the
chief
is
committed
to
that.
We,
our
staff,
has
been
working
very
diligently
with
those
song
commanders
and
community
liaisons
to
help
us
organize
and
strategize
on
how
to
execute
these.
C
So
it's
going
to
take
that
much
more
of
a
very,
very
professional,
not
just
only
police,
but
all
emergency
response
would
be
medics
fire,
you
know,
etc
all
coming
together,
because
there's
actually
mal
problems
and
each
of
those
particular
divisions
and
so
forth.
I
know.
Sometimes
people
try
to
emphasize
on
the
police
element,
but
I've
had
a
chance
to
experience
of
emergency
response
departments
and
so
forth,
and
sometimes
the
inner
communication,
medics
versus
fire
departments
and
so
forth
yet
seems
to
be
things
that
can
be
doable
and
that
is
declaring
up
the
whole
airway.
C
You
know
to
make
a
type
of
Pittsburgh
that
we
want
to
actually
have
so
yeah.
This
is
um
it's
important
I
think's
in
the
right
direction
and
the
one
thing
I
know
that
probably
the
general
public
doesn't
know
that
the
Commission
itself
is
very,
very
unique.
One
few
in
the
country
that
have
a
little
bit
more
clout,
it's
not
something
that
they
just
put
bear
as
show-and-tell
or
just
pure
rhetoric.
C
Pittsburgh
has
always
had
a
strong
foothold
as
a
bass.
History
on
the
Commission
I.
Remember
the
Commissioner,
a
fox
of
many
years
involved
in
in
double-a-c-p,
leave
Pittsburgh
and
getting
some
real
bass
changes.
So
hopefully
you
will
all
come
together
and
find
out
more
about
us
and
we'll
find
out
more
about
you
as
a
community.
C
B
Thank
You
director,
Taurus
I,
will
have
to
and
testimonies
on
following
right
off
each
other
conjunction
one
will
be
from
Professor
David
Harris,
who
teaches
at
the
University
of
Pittsburgh
law
school
and
then
the
Evelynn
be
listening
to
his
executive
director
of
the
pittsburgh
citizen
review
board.
It
was,
they
were
run
right
after
each
other.
So
it's
all
he
was
Rachel.
F
Earlier
in
my
career,
first,
a
prosecutor
and
then
a
defense
attorney
and
when
I
came
to
the
academic
world,
I
began
to
study
and
write
about
the
things
that
I
knew
from
being
in
court
every
day
what
police
did
especially
search
and
seizure
law,
and
at
that
point,
immigration
was
just
a
blip
on
the
horizon
in
the
criminal
court.
You
almost
never
saw
immigration
issues
even
considered,
though
they
were
just
beginning
to
show
up
in
the
mid
90s
I
was
writing
about
police
stops.
F
F
Okayed,
the
practice
of
police
using
pretext
stops
making
a
stop
of
a
car
for
a
burned-out
taillight
or
some
kind
of
other
equipment
violation,
something
minor,
a
seatbelt
with
the
idea
that
you
would.
You
were
actually
stopping
the
driver
for
a
drug
investigation,
usually-
and
that
put
me
on
track
to
begin
working
with
people
in
Congress
people
in
state
legislatures
for
the
first
pieces
of
legislation
on
what
became
what
came
to
be
called
racial
profiling.
G
F
I
hear
today
from
local
police
forces
all
across
the
country
is
very
similar
to
what
I
first
heard.
Ten
and
twelve
years
ago.
Local
police
do
not
want
to
be
involved
in
enforcement
of
immigration
laws
and
I'd
say
that
this
is
not
true
everywhere,
because
the
political
climate
around
immigration
has
changed
so
much,
but
it
is
still
true
in
most
places,
and
the
reason
for
this
is
that
same
core
understanding.
Local
police
are
there
to
protect
and
to
serve.
They
believe
in
safeguarding
and
serving
everyone.
F
The
immigration
status
of
a
particular
person,
who's,
the
victim
of
a
robbery
or
domestic
abuse
or
any
other
crime,
is
not
relevant
to
making
them
safe.
The
local
police
know
in
a
way
that
our
policymakers
in
Washington
do
not
seem
to
that.
If
local
police
become
identified
with
immigration
enforcement,
the
community
of
people
that
might
include
undocumented
people,
those
people
will
become
afraid
to
come
to
them.
They
will
become
afraid
to
file
police
reports.
They
won't
even
want
to
call
the
fire
department.
F
F
Millions
of
households
contain
mostly
legal
permanent
residents
or
natural-born
citizens,
but
they
might
include
somebody
an
uncle,
a
cousin
who
is
not
documented,
and
so
even
households
of
American
citizens
will
hesitate
and
that
hesitation
breeds
crime,
because
if
you
don't
have
reports,
you
don't
get
to
get
the
Predators
off
the
street.
If
you
have
mistrust,
people
won't
come
forward.
Mistrust
and
fear
means
no
reports
of
crime
and
that's
a
danger
to
everybody's
public
safety.
That's
why
local
police
should
stay
away
from
immigration
enforcement.
G
F
Have
any
data
about
the
local
Allegheny
County
communities,
but
I,
don't
expect
it's
any
different
than
what
I'm
seeing
elsewhere?
We
are
already
seeing
drops
in
reporting
of
crimes
in
some
Latino
communities,
because
there
have
been
reports
about
ice
agents
showing
up
in
unexpected
places,
even
courthouses.
So.
G
F
Police
are
resisting
Attorney,
General
Sessions
efforts
to
force
them
into
enforcing
federal
immigration
law
because
they
know
that
for
them
with
their
mission,
a
mission
to
protect
and
serve
everybody
in
their
cities
or
counties,
they
know
that
becoming
part
of
any
immigration
enforcement
effort
will
drive
a
wedge
between
them
and
their
local
populations.
It
will
cause
people
to
fear
them.
It
will
cause
people
to
wonder
when
they
get
a
knock
on
the
door,
whether
they
can
comfortably
answer
it
and
report
wrongdoing
in
their
neighborhood
or
being
victims
of
crimes.
F
They
know
this
they
work
in
there
come
in
is
they
know
how
hard
they
have
had
to
work
to
build
bridges
with
immigrant
communities.
I
mean
there
are
lots
and
lots
of
towns
and
cities
where
the
police
have
devoted
hours
and
hours
of
work
and
had
meetings
and
gone
to
festivals
and
worked
and
worked
and
work
to
build
those
bridges
of
trust
with
their
communities,
and
all
of
that
will
be
for
naught
if
Attorney
General
Sessions
gets
his
way.
F
There
is
no
law
that
says
that
local
law
enforcement
has
to
enforce
federal
immigration
law,
no
law
right
and
attorney.
General
Sessions
is
left
to
threaten
the
withdraw
of
federal
funds
as
his
stick
to
try
to
get
local
police
departments
to
do
this,
he
doesn't
have
any
right
to
command
it
to
be
so.
That's
our
federal
system
so.
F
Well,
I
think
there's
been
a
great
push
to
have
the
city
declare
itself
a
sanctuary
city
I'm,
not
sure
that
that's
the
answer,
because
there's
a
lot
of
baggage
that
goes
along
with
that
term
and
honestly,
it's
undefined.
Nobody
knows
exactly
what
it
means
and
it
gets
kicked
around
as
a
kind
of
political
football
and
used
as
a
weapon.
What
I
would
say
that
the
city
should
do
is
basically
what
I
saw
in
a
sign
on
City
County
buildings
I
walked
through
downtown
today,
because
everybody
here
is
welcome
and
I've
heard
them.
F
F
So,
in
order
to
do
that,
what
we
have
to
do
as
a
city
is
to
make
sure
that
people
who
come
into
contact
on
the
city's
behalf
with
anybody
who's
here
do
not
even
knowingly
or
unknowingly
play
the
role
of
immigration
enforcement
right
that
can
include
of
questioning
people
on
Port
Authority
transit,
who
are
suspected
of
not
paying
fares.
They
shouldn't
be
questioned
about
this
status.
It
should
include
anybody
who
gets
stopped
in
a
vehicle
or
on
the
street.
They
shouldn't
be
asked
questions
about
their
immigration
status.
F
If
the
federal
government
wants
to
do
things
like
that,
let
them
do
it
and
let
them
do
it
in
their
sphere.
Pittsburgh
should
be
a
place
where
people
can
walk
around
without
fear
and
do
their
best.
They
can
for
themselves,
families
and
their
communities.
That's
what
everybody's
interest
is
here,
so
my
advice
would
be
to
put
our
police
officers
in
a
position
where
they
enforce
the
law.
That
way
with
that
in
mind,
and
any
other
community
in
this
county
should
do
the
same,
should
follow
Pittsburgh's
lead,
good.
A
A
Now
immediately
prior
to
that,
in
anticipation
of
significant
intervention
by
the
Department
of
Justice
that
the
local,
the
local
government
structure
was
not
excited
about,
and
there
was
a
flurry
of
activism
by
City
Council
and
they
passed
a
number
of
bills
and
ordinances
that
attempted
to
change
the
way
policing
was
done,
but
they
were
deficient
in
many
men.
Waise
among
us
was
an
effort
to
create
a
civilian
oversight
board.
It
failed.
A
They
could
not
get
five
votes,
which
was
not
a
surprise,
but
it
did
instigate
a
huge
groundswell
of
community
activity
demanding
that
there
be
some
independent
oversight
of
this
war
Bureau
police.
Now
it
was
at
that
time
an
effort
to
that
resulted
in
a
referendum.
Question
going
on
the
May
20th
1997
ballot
to
the
primary
voters
and
at
that
point,
with
a
margin
that
exceeded
that
which
the
incumbent
mayor
received
for
reen,
AMA
nation
to
his
office,
the
the
measure
was
adopted
in
the
Home
Rule
Charter
was
amended
and
this
board
was
created.
So.
G
A
The
late
2000s
we
had
a
lot
of
tension
at
that
time,
our
Hispanic
community
was
growing
and
they
were
settling
in
the
beach.you
area.
Oakland
North
Oakland
area,
I
guess.
But
it
was
a
time
where
there
was
a
great
influx.
So
anyway,
chief
Harper
and
I
went
to
Oakland
and
Chiefs
wife.
We
were
all
invited
to
go
to
Oakland
to
a
community
gathering
at
the
church
that
they
used
to
go
to,
and
it
was
a
huge
gathering.
Huge.
A
lot
of
families
were
concerned
about
being
there.
A
They
were
reassured
nobody's
here
to
do
a
raid
and
none
of
that
stuff
going
on
you're
all
safe,
and
we
had
an
open
community
discussion
and
chief
Harper
committed
at
that
time
that
that
perceived
profiling
would
stop,
and
it
did.
There
was
direction
given
to
the
officers
that
they
were
not
if
someone's
immigration
status
was
material
to
a
criminal
investigation
than
it
was.
They
had
a
duty
to
deal
with
it
to
notify,
but
that
was
the
extent
of
it.
Their
authority
stops
in
terms
of
the
local
criminal
investigation.
We're
now
in.
G
A
Well,
the
local
police
are
not
authorized,
they
don't
have
the
power
to
enforce
federal
law.
Now,
I
know
that
the
that
the
current
president
has
expressed
the
desire
to
deputize
all
local
police.
He
can't
do
that.
The
federal
government
cannot
make
a
state
do
something
related
to
a
federal
law.
The
only
hammer
they
have
is
funding
the
financial
grants
federal
money
coming
into
that
jurisdiction.
A
That's
why
House
bill
1302
is
very
important,
because
the
state
has
to
say
we're
not
going
to
do
this.
We
find
this
to
be
unconstitutional.
We
are
not
we're
not
going
to
do
this,
and
the
federal
government
cannot
do
anything
about
that.
Except
withhold
funds,
that's
their
that's
their
hammer,
but
the
local
police
have
no
they're,
not
interested
in
forcing
in
enforcing
federal
law
immigration
law.
They
have
enough
to
do
to
keep
their
community
safe.
G
So
Attorney
General,
Jeff
Sessions,
has
made
moves
to
squeeze
so-called
sanctuary
cities,
partly
by
using
that
hammer.
You
talked
about
the
funding.
There's
been
a
recent
court
ruling
which
has
restricted
his
attempted
use
of
that
power,
deeming
it
to
be
unconstitutional
in
the
way
that
he
is
trying
to
lever
police
into
inappropriate
roles.
So
do
you
know
more
about
that?
Can
you
share
more
about
what
that
ruling
means
at
this
point
and.
A
G
A
You
know
that
that
when,
when
the
dominant
culture
feels
threatened,
that's
when
you
see
the
compassion
wane,
that's
when
you
see
the
kinds
of
hate
incidents,
the
disrespect,
the
explosive
incidents
that
happen.
That's
when
you
see
that
happening,
we
have
created
the
image
or
the
created
the
circumstances
where
the
public
perception
of
the
dominant
people
and
the
majority
of
people
are
feeling
threatened
by
some
group
other
than
themselves,
which
has
happened
in
this
country
that
fear
will
escalate
and
that
fear
will
turn
itself
against
all
of
those
folks
right,
that's
what
we've
seen
happen.
A
A
Then
we
we've
endorsed
it
and
that
can't
be
tolerated
and
that's
where
the
leadership
and
the
character
of
our
electives
comes
into
play
that
they
they
have
an
obligation
to
intervene
or
to
maintain
some
level
of
harmony
in
a
neighborhood
and
when,
when
disharmony
occurs,
the
people
turn
against
each
other.
Neighborhoods
tend
to
go
down
because
people
don't
care
anymore,
they're,
not
listening
to
you're,
not
respected.
If
you're
electives
aren't
going
to
give
you
that
feedback
and
they're
not
going
to
support
you
and
I'm
not
talking
about.
A
G
B
Thank
you,
Beth
and,
and
professor
Harris,
of
course,
they
can't
have
any
but
repaint
them
I
got
I
have
a
question
for
chief
Schubert.
We
know
that
we
all
come
from
diverse
culture.
We
are
governed
by
our
culture's
of
bias
of
traditions
and
that's
embedded
in
us,
and
sometimes
we
make
an
made
decision,
whether
it's
subconscious
unconscious
or
subconsciously,
because
of
who
we
are
and
what
is
part
of
our
ethos
now,
to
bridge
the
cultural
divide
between
police
and
community.
B
D
D
You
know,
neighborhoods
that
there
might
be
an
influx
whether
from
the
Bhutanese
or
Iraq
or
Latino
community,
that
we
really
didn't
know
until
we
got
a
call
to
that
location
and
I'll
be
honest.
I
was
a
commander.
It
it
zone
six
for
eight
years
and
I
didn't
know.
We
had
in
an
increase
up
in
the
Westwood
area
at
a
housing
complex
until
I
was
delivering
Thanksgiving
dinners
that
we
do
for
around
the
city,
and
it
was
there
when
I
delivered
one
of
the
meals
that
I
finally
finally
knew
and
for
us
to
be
successful.
D
We
learn
from
them
is
well
being
in
school.
But
it's
something
that
can't
just
stop.
It
can't
be
a
cookie
cutter.
Okay,
here
go
through
this
training
and
that's
that
something
that's
got
to
be
reinforced
and
but
ultimately
I
think
the
biggest
part
is
going
to
be
our
interaction
with
the
community
as
a
whole.
Everybody
by
being
out
there
and
communicating
with
them
and
finding
out
I
find
out
so
much
just
by
going
to
these
meetings
in
creation
side
go
into
those
for
welcoming
Pittsburgh
and
we've
done
other
things
as
well
of
being
proactive.
D
Go
now,
and
you
learn
so
much
at
those
things
that
you
don't
think
about
with
with
what
they're
going
through
with
their
struggles
and
we
can
never
live
in
a
society
where
people
are
afraid
to
call
public
safety.
And
you
know
not
just
speaking
about
police
but
fire
and
EMS,
where
you
know
somebody
may
be
the
victim
of
a
crime
or
a
witness
of
a
crime
and
they
don't
they're
afraid
to
call.
D
You
know,
as
I
said
in
the
beginning,
and
we
get
in
this
profession
because
we're
here
to
help
and
we're
here
to
make
a
difference,
and
you
know
we
swear
to
an
oath
for
the
state
and
federal
constitution
to
you,
know,
protect
the
rights
of
people
and
we
can't
be
successful.
People
are
afraid
to
call
us.
We
don't
when
somebody
calls
not
alone,
we
don't
get
on
the
phone
and
say
who
are
you?
Where
do
you
come
from?
We
just
know
that
somebody
needs
help
and
we
respond
to
that.
D
So
I
think
it's
a
mixture
of
continuing
with
the
training,
the
fact
that
we're
committed
to
the
procedural
justice,
the
fact
that
we're
committed
to
implicit
bias
but
I
think
the
real
payoff
is
going
to
be
with
our
interaction
out
in
the
community.
With
with
people
we
were
entrusted
to
protect
and
serve.
E
Thank
you
for
the
question.
The
Commission
does
not
care
about
the
immigration
status
of
individuals
that
have
experienced
discrimination
so
when
an
individual
reaches
up
to
us,
whether
on
the
phone
or
by
walking
into
our
offices,
we
do
not
ask
what
is
your
immigration
status?
We
asked
what
happened
and
if
it's
jurisdictional
to
us,
meaning
it
happened
in
employment,
housing
or
public
accommodation.
E
So
for
us,
the
issue
of
immigration
or
immigration
status
is
never
a
consideration
for
us
to
do
our
work.
So
the
person
has
experienced
discrimination
because
they're,
a
member
of
the
LGBT
community
or
because
their
religion,
their
practice
or
because
their
country
they
came
from
or
any
of
the
protected
categories.
We
will
investigate.
