The DPD cancels the “Use of Force Forum” and issues a statement.

Included in the statement is a plan to “reschedule the event shortly…and [to] invite members of the NAACP and other communities of inclusion to help us plan the next event.”

IMPACT: NAACP, Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ), Superior Save the Kids, and other communities interpret this as a positive first step towards building an inclusive, community-directed public conversation around the use of force by police in our community.

Duluth (In)Action is a platform to ultimately abolish the system of policing in Duluth and shift the culture of accountability. We are a group of Duluth citizens shedding light on the current practices of our city and DPD, hoping to ultimately change the way we think about policing and safety. We also hope this work can be used by activists and organizers as a political education tool for communities.
