Coffee House Discussion on When Should I Call the Police?

Recent incidents of SOMA residents calling the police on perceived suspicious activity, the police response, and the social media responses will be the topic of the South Orange/ Maplewood Community Coalition on Race sponsored Coffee House Discussion entitled When Should I Call the Police? This community roundtable discussion in small groups will explore issues such as: what should prompt someone to call for police; racist assumptions about people that cause suspicions; use of social media to shame people—both those who call the police and those who question the motives of the callers; use of social media to post surveillance footage and photos related to these calls; and more.

Thursday, September 19, 2019, 7:30 – 9:30 PM at the Woodland parlor, Maplewood NJ.
