How can the lessons learned by organizers and activists today be made accessible for generations to come? Michelle Gross (Communities United Against Police Violence) and Matthew Lassiter (History, University of Michigan), with Susanna Blumenthal (University of Minnesota Law and History), will discuss how documenting the efforts and outcomes of police reform initiatives can influence ongoing and future measures. They will explore the challenges of creating an archive that not only records the history of police reform, but also serves as a dynamic resource for future research, policymaking, and activism. The 2024-25 (In)Justice Series on Just Policing presented by the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Minnesota critically examines how policing intersects with broader societal issues across the globe and explores efforts to reform, transform, or abolish policing. Presented in partnership with the Andrew W. Mellon-funded Sawyer Seminar on Just Policing.
