Barbara Atwell from Berkeley Friends will moderate this discussion where the panelists will explore …
- what kind of equipment East Bay police departments have,
- what safeguards protect the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties, and
- how the purchase of military equipment and associated training has, as some say, changed the interactions of police with the citizens.
