Restoring Trust: A Dialogue on Police & Community Relations - Next Monday @ Congregation Beth Elohim

http://cdn.brownstoner.com/4fc652851dc1c-.png

Dear fellow Brooklynite, I’m writing about any important town hall event on community and police relations that is taking place next Monday, June 4th at 7pm in Park Slope.  I am hoping that you can attend and help spread the word. As I’m sure you are aware, there has been a lot of talk in the papers recently about “stop and frisk” policies at the NYPD.  For many of us living in Brownstone Brooklyn, it’s not always evident how these policies impact our day-to-day life.   When you dig into this issue a bit deeper – as Monday’s event will do – there’s a lot more beneath the surface and the findings are particularly disturbing.  In the Park Slope area, for example, there were over 8,000 of these “stop & frisks” last year!   If you look at the map below marking each of these stops, you won’t find a single block in our community where people haven’t been stopped and frisked by police.   Monday’s town hall meeting will be held at Congregation Beth Elohim, 274 Garfield Place, Brooklyn , NY 11215 (Google map and directions) and includes a great group of guest speakers including New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, Council Member Brad Lander, Dr. Delores Jones-Brown of John Jay College, Udi Ofer of NYCLU, and more. Seating is limited so please reply to this email to RSVP or you can get more details and RSVP online at http://tinyurl.com/bklyn-rsvp I look forward to seeing you on Monday at 7pm.  Thank you in advance for helping to spread the word. Best, Josh Sidis
NYC Advocate Bill de Blasio

We’re working on getting an interactive map of the whole city up on our website @ bloombergactnow.com  Right now it is just a huge image file that is probably too big for email.  But if you’d like to have a particular section of the map, I can take a screenshot for you and email it.

I’d be curious for a link to above map, too. The NY Times published a similar, but less colorful, interactive map in 2010\. Too bad they haven’t updated: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/07/11/nyregion/20100711-stop-and-frisk.html

Do you have an online link to the above map or a pdf downloadable version?
