Friend,

Like you I am horrified, saddened, and angered by the tragic and
preventable death of Tyre Nichols.

As tragedies like these continue to unfold around the country, what is
clear is that the culture of violence and abuse within police departments
is a failure of the U.S. policing system – not just of individual
officers.

Police killings and other egregious abuses will never end until we adopt
long-term systemic solutions that weed out violent officers in the
application process and change systems so we prioritize unarmed responses
to non-violent emergencies.

[ [link removed] ]Join People For next Thursday, February 9 at 7:00 PM ET (4:00 PM PT)
for an exclusive member briefing where we’ll discuss the events that
occurred in Memphis and highlight the reforms in our “All Safe:
Transforming Public Safety” report >>

Joining me during the briefing will be:

* London Lamar, Tennessee State Senator who represents the Memphis area
and is a People For YEO
* Andrea Sosa, Policy Manager at People For
* Alana Byrd, Field Director at People For

During the call we’ll talk about the tragedy in Memphis, practical policy
reforms that are discussed in the All Safe report, and ways advocates can
engage right now to create change in their communities.

[ [link removed] ]We hope you’ll join us next week – RSVP today and submit your questions
for the panelists ahead of time! >>

Only by working together can we create lasting and meaningful change that
can put an end to these senseless tragedies.

Thanks for all that you do,

Svante Myrick
President
