  • Racial Disparities in Policing
    Racial Disparities in Policing An Advisory Memorandum of the Oklahoma Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights June 2021 Advisory Memorandum To: The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights From: The Oklahoma Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Date: June 2021 Subject: Racial Disparities in Policing The Oklahoma Advisory Committee (Committee) to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (Commission) convened a series of online public meetings to hear testimony regarding racial disparities in policing in November and December of 2020. The following advisory memorandum results from the testimony provided during the online panels, as well as related testimony submitted to the Committee in writing during the relevant period of public comment. It begins with a brief background of the issue to be considered by the Committee. It then identifies primary findings as they emerged from the testimony. Finally, the Committee conveys their recommendations for addressing related civil rights concerns. This memo is intended to focus specifically on racial disparities in policing practices. While other important topics may have surfaced throughout the Committee’s inquiry, those matters that are outside the scope of this specific civil rights mandate are left for another discussion. This memo and the recommendations included within it were adopted unanimously by the Committee on May 25, 2021. Oklahoma Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Vicki Limas, Chair Charity Marcus Mary Sue Backus Adam McLain-Snipes Adam Doverspike Michael Owens Moises Echeverria Christopher Smith Andrew Lester Joseph Thai 1 | Page Background In 1981, the Commission issued a seminal report on police practices in America, Who is Guarding the Guardians? Twenty years later the Commission issued a follow-up report, Revisiting Who is Guarding the Guardians? Both reports raised troubling concerns about insular police practices that undermine equal protection under the law.
