JANUARY 2013 URBAN JUSTICE CENTER CRIMINALIZING COMMUNITIES: NYPD ABUSE OF VULNERABLE POPULATIONS Police Reform Organizing Project Urban Justice Center 123 William Street, 16th floor New York, NY 10038 Phone: 646-602-5625 Fax: 212-533-4598 [email protected] Walter Leitner International Human Rights Clinic Leitner Center for International Law and Justice Fordham University School of Law 33 W. 60th Street New York, NY 10023 Phone: 212-636-7716 [email protected] ABOUT THE POLICE REFORM ORGANIZING PROJECT Through research and analysis, public education, policy advocacy, and coalition building, the Police Reform Organizing Project aims: to stop the current wasteful, ineffective, unjust, illegal, bullying, homophobic, transphobic, and racially biased practices of the NYPD; to create a strong, independent entity that monitors and assesses police priorities and policies and that effectively investigates and punishes abusive conduct; and, to establish and implement local problem solving measures that strengthen communities while reducing crime. ABOUT THE URBAN JUSTICE CENTER The Urban Justice Center is a unique organization which serves New York City’s most vulnerable residents through a combination of direct legal services, systemic advocacy, community education and political organizing. The Urban Justice Center’s unique structure involves nine discrete projects which work on various issues faced by politically marginalized communities in New York City.

Good information nourishes democracy; bad information poisons it. The mission of the Shorenstein Center is to support and protect the information ecosystem. This means promoting access to reliable information through our work with journalists, policymakers, civil society, and scholars, while also slowing the spread of bad information, from hate speech to “fake news” to all kinds of distortion and media manipulation. The public square has always had to contend with liars, propagandists, dividers, and demagogues.

The analysis examines the allocation of resources among the U.S. federal government’s five broad homeland security priorities during the fiscal years of 2012-2017. An overemphasis on border security has led to a disproportionate allocation of resources among these various priorities. The uneven distribution is the summation of electoral ambitions, campaign contributions, and corporate lobbying. -
