Why do white people and people of color view policing so differently?

By Fernando Ospina

Welcome to ERACCE’s first blog post.  This blog will be a place for us to share our analysis of current issues pertaining to systemic racism and the antiracism movement.  We will apply an antiracist lens to understanding what is going on in Southwest Michigan and around the nation as well.  We will follow current events and reach back into history to better understand how racism and institutional oppression manifests today and in our everyday lives.

Understanding history is vital to understanding why, for example, protests against police violence are occurring today. Historical events and present-day lived experiences are not often easy to disentangle.
