[quote=Anonymous]"I think you missed the point entirely. The video was shown as a kind of minstrel show by police who believe that their poor black constituents are beyond saving because they are raised to be thugs from infancy. What could police hope to learn from this other than a reinforcement of stereotypes that they already hold about black people? Don't try to confuse this by bringing in the Aryan nations video example as a kind of false parity. This video absolutely has zero value as a police training tool. ZERO."

I simply don't agree. BOTH types of videos are equally important because they show the dangerous, invasive beliefs/culture. There's no false parity- that's YOUR value. I guess you are right in that some people may watch and believe it proves stereotypes and assume some are not able to change/learn and better themselves, but a helluva lot of people are going to see how invasive the issues and do more to help/reach these children. I don't think people will assume we all engage in these behaviors.[/quote]
