"Black Lives Matter" - With Brandon Lee

Send us Fan MailI welcome you to listen to a conversation I had last month with a good friend of mine, Mr. Bandon Lee, a proud black man from Oakland California and Huston, TX.  Brandon is a regular presenter and speaker at educational institutions, government agencies, non-profit organizations, and conferences on topics that include: How to Survive a Police Stop, Racism, Trauma & Healing, Black Founders of the United States of America and Community Conscious Policing.As a survivor of racial profiling, Brandon settled a lawsuit against a police department that resulted in a monetary settlement and disciplinary action against the officers involved. In Oakland, he worked to fund the Citizens Police Review Board, which was later replaced by the Police Commission and Community Police Review Agency in 2016 (Measure LL). Understanding that the polarization of law enforcement and community members deepens as our nation continues to erupt into protests He knows very well that Trust has been broken and communities feel unsafe. With a lifetime of experience personally advocating for justice against profiling and institutional racism, he has become the expert in transforming traumatic circumstances into hopeful victorious ones. His understanding of how to correct and restore institutions to a healthy and inclusive environment is unmatched.Trying to find a solution, Brandon Co-founded a nonprofit organization called,  Training 4 Transformation (T4T) that advocates Community Conscious Policing.  Community Conscious Policing is a public health response model to end law enforcement violence. It is designed to augment and enhance existing continuing education for law enforcement, students in social justice-related fields, advocates involved in police accountability, and organizations seeking to increase their outreach capacity through collaboration with local law enforcement agencies. Tweet me @realdrhamrahIG @drhamrah
