NYC Public Advocate Jumaane Williams' Message on Over-Policing in Pandemic
“As a citywide elected leader who comes from the communities that are being disproportionately targeted, who has seen the impact of over-policing for many years magnified in this pandemic, even I was shocked to see the egregious degree of disparity in social distancing enforcement. It was what we had suspected, feared and warned against, only worse."
