Voice of OC (https://voiceofoc.org/tag/police/)
The City of Anaheim is currently the only city in Orange County with a civilian police review board. Santa Ana City Council members this Tuesday will talk about joining those ranks.
James Huynh and My Nguyen write that the LGBT Center OC should reconsider inviting uniformed police officers to this year’s Pride Parade and host open dialogue and community town halls about how to bridge relationships between law enforcement and the LGBTQ+ community.
Laura Kanter, a Queer and Trans Rights Advocate and co-founder of the Orange County LGBTQ+ Policing Partnership and the Orange County Equality Coalition, questions the decision by the Center OC to have police march in uniform at this weekend’s Pride Parade in Orange County, arguing T-Shirts are better than gun belts to show support.
