Is it Recording?--racial Bias, Police Accountability, and the Body-worn Camera Activation Policies of the Ten Largest Metropolitan Police Departments in the Usa |
9 Columbia Journal of Race and Law 141 (2018) |
In recent years, there has been a growing belief that the pressing problem of racial bias in policing might be ameliorated by a technical fix--namely, police body-worn cameras. Accordingly, body-worn cameras have been introduced in police departments across the country, giving rise to a variety of different internal guidelines and policies. This... |

Legal Consciousness as Race Consciousness: Expansion of the Fourth Amendment Seizure Analysis Through Objective Knowledge of Police Impunity |

Encounters between police officers and members of the community are deeply influenced by race. Yet when courts assess whether police officers have complied with the Fourth Amendment, they explicitly exclude consideration of the ways in which racial bias, assumptions, and fear influence police-civilian interactions.

Let's Get Real: Behavioral Realism, Implicit Bias, and the Reasonable Police Officer |

Constitutional law is not particularly sophisticated about bias, and so it is not very good at protecting people from it. This is nowhere more evident than in the Supreme Court's jurisprudence around racial profiling. The Supreme Court has conceptualized racial profiling as something only bad police officers do; it has equated bad stops with bad... |

This perception of friendly officers... |
