Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
As recent statistics show crime dropping nationwide, many are giving credit to new strategies in policing. But innovations in cities like New York and elsewhere require new approaches to training police officers. Kojo and panelists discuss current methods cities are using to prepare their law enforcement personnel for policing in today’s communities.
