In this episode, DavidAndGoliath’s Director of Empathy Tiffany Persons and former NYPD executive Corey Pegues plunge into how the historical background of policing has shaped the failures of the police system today. Tiffany dives deep into Corey’s experiences being on the force as well as his motivations. Corey also makes an analogy to slave-patrol catching being similar to the stop-question-and-frisk and the shooting of innocent black men today. Corey strongly believes that policing as a whole needs to change and that police unions have a strong hold on the injustices of the cases today.
