28: A Transformational Policing Model Based on Community & Education w/ Dr. Tommy Tunson

Imagine that you were stopped as a robbery suspect by the police as a teenager. They beat you up, called you the N-word, and took you to jail without booking you. How likely are you to commit your life to law enforcement? (Actually, 100%, if you’re today’s guest.) In this episode, I interview Dr. Tommy Tunson, Director of Public Safety Training at Bakersfield College, about his transformational policing model. What we talked about: -Change in America comes slowly, but it comes from leadership -The 2 prongs of the transformational policing model — one involves C4 -What police officers & community leaders discover about each other when they communicate Check out these resources we mentioned during the podcast: -Dr. Tunson’s book, The C.O.P., is forthcoming soon!
