What is at greatest risk? What adaptations do you want to keep and why? As a springboard for this discussion, member presidents will briefly revisit dimensions of the lived experience on as campus that we discussed at the April Board meeting: Strategies for managing the virus (state protocols; approaches to testing; cleaning protocols; planning and coordination with local health authorities; dashboards); student life (lower density; housing; dining; non-academic support services, including behavioral health); academic delivery (types of course delivery; student academic experience; engagement of faculty and staff; academic support services); finances (budgets; costs; revenue concerns; donations; construction); campus culture (impact on our employees and the cohesiveness of our academic communities). 9:30-10:45am The Road to Racial Justice: Social Equity in Action on Member Campuses Discussion questions: How can Independent Colleges of Washington best support the diversity, equity and inclusion work of its member campuses? Presidents, what role do you want to see the association play? Amid the critical national discussions around racial justice and social equity, Independent Colleges of Washington’s member campuses are holding space, leading, and learning with their communities. Materials for this session will include overviews of the diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) commitments and strategic framework by campus and the racial justice action plans and relevant data. When we are together, member presidents will have the opportunity to briefly reflect on (1) their top priority for this work; and (2) a challenge their campus is facing. This overview will set the stage for a discussion around the priorities, communications, programs, and initiatives that can best help our member campuses advance on their DEI journeys. 11 am-12:15 pm The “Other” Washington: Federal Policy and the Post-Election Forecast Special guest: Barbara K. Mistick, President, National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (NAICU) Discussion questions: What are the prospects for future relief from the federal government? How can the Independent Colleges of Washington Board best support member campuses with Washington’s Congressional delegation? Depending upon the outcome of the national election, what are the prospects for independent higher education’s priorities? Page 4 of 223 Independent Colleges of Washington partners with NAICU and its affiliate network of state associations, the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities State Executives (NAICUSE) to advance federal higher education policy, support our students with scholarship dollars, monitor regulations, and enhance visibility for our member campuses. At a critical juncture in the nation’s history, this interactive discussion will focus on independent higher education’s prospects at the federal level. We also will find time to briefly consider elections in the state of Washington are expected to shape the Executive and Legislative branches here and the coming State Budget for the 2021-23 Biennium and Legislative Session. 12:15 pm Adjourn Tuesday, October 27, 2020 8:00-8:45 am Open Discussion 8:45-9:15 am Business Meeting Approval of Minutes from Spring 2020 meeting* Reports from Board Committees Board Development Committee (5 minutes) Finance and Audit Committee (5 minutes) Audited Financial Statement, FY 2019-20 Fund Development Committee (5 minutes) Approve nominee for the 2021 Stanley O.

I'm Dr. Georges Benjamin, the executive director of the American Public Health Association. This first webinar in our Advancing Racial Equity series is incredibly timely. Inequities within the COVID-19 pandemic and the uprising over police violence underscore racism as an ongoing public health crisis that needs our attention now. Silence and turning a blind eye are no longer acceptable if we want to make meaningful progress towards racial and health equity.

  • Combating Anti-Black Racism June 18, 2020
    Combating Anti-black Racism June 18, 2020 Harvard University has never been entirely insulated from the dynamism of life beyond its gates. If that was not crystal clear before now, it has certainly been clarified and amplified by the profound impact of both an unexpected virus and a set of unjust murders. We share in the anger and pain reverberating across the nation in the wake of the recent instances of police brutality, white supremacist violence, and the manner in which COVID-19 is devastating black and brown communities at disproportionate rates. It is deeply saddening to hear about the untimely and preventable deaths of George Floyd (Minnesota), Breonna Taylor (Kentucky), and Ahmaud Arbery (Georgia). Furthermore, the epidemic of violence involving those who are black and transgender continues to claim lives, among them Nina Pop (Missouri) and Tony McDade (Florida). We also witnessed the weaponization of whiteness that could have led one of our graduates, Christian Cooper (New York), to share a similar fate as those aforementioned. Days ago, another shocking video surfaced capturing the final moments of Rayshard Brooks (Atlanta). The 27-year-old’s death has spurred a fresh wave of anguish and protests. These incidents are not isolated, nor are they new phenomena. Not only are they common features of black life in America, but they are probably very present in the hearts and minds of our now dispersed Harvard community. And they will likely be top of mind when we all return to campus. We have a responsibility to act with urgency. We must reckon with the structural inequality and pervasive prejudice that has led us here and work towards a future where these disparities no longer exist.

ESSAY WHAT’S WRONG WITH POLICE UNIONS? Benjamin Levin* In an era of declining labor power, police unions stand as a success story for worker organizing—they exert political clout and negotiate favorable terms for their members. Yet, despite support for unionization on the political left, police unions have become public enemy number one for commentators concerned about race and police violence. Much criti- cism of police unions focuses on their obstructionism and their prioritiza- tion of members’ interests over the interests of the communities they police.

[laughter] However, it might really be worth going to, it sounds really great, I haven't seen it. It's at 8:30 in the Seattle Westin which is just down the street, room Cascade 1B. And it was created at the Movement for Black Lives convening in July in Cleveland, and the filmmaker will be there afterward to answer questions and everything, so if you have time and interest check that out.

  • Police Use of Force: Rules, Remedies, and Reforms
    Police Use of Force: Rules, Remedies, and Reforms Richard M. Thompson II Legislative Attorney October 30, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44256 Police Use of Force: Rules, Remedies, and Reforms Summary Several high-profile police shootings and other law enforcement-related deaths in the United States have sparked intense protests throughout the country and a fierce debate in Congress concerning the appropriate level of force police officers should wield in a society that equally values public safety and the lives of each of its citizens under law. These incidents have been the subject of several congressional hearings, have prompted the introduction of various legislative measures, and have catalyzed a new civil rights movement in the United States aimed at reforming the criminal justice system. Reformers claim that police work too closely with local prosecutors resulting in insufficient oversight and have called for greater involvement by the federal government. The law enforcement community and its supporters have countered that these recent deaths are anomalous in otherwise exemplary police conduct, and that placing the federal government in direct regulation of state and local police would present an unwarranted intrusion into state and local affairs. To provide legal context for this debate, this report will address three overarching questions: (1) what are the constitutional rules governing an officer’s use of force; (2) what role has Congress played in providing a remedy for a violation of these rules; and (3) what are the potential reforms to these rules and remedies? Rules. In a line of cases beginning in the mid-1980s, the Supreme Court ruled that all claims of excessive force occurring during an arrest or investigatory stop—deadly or otherwise—are governed by the Fourth Amendment’s prohibition against unreasonable seizures.
