It has been widely documented that young Black and Latino men have been targeted by the New York City Police Departments use of  Stop, Question, & Frisk. Researchers for Fair Policing, a youth and adult research team from Make the Road New York and the Public Science Project, have gathered evidence that “Stop & Frisk” has also had harsh negative consequences for women, immigrant communities, and LGBTQ communities. This video introduces the widespread impact of Stop & Frisk on diverse communities in New York City residents. Stop & Frisk divides our city. How can we hold the NYPD accountable for the safety and well-being of everyone in our communities?
