Über diesen Titel

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into a transformative idea gaining momentum across communities—abolitionist frameworks that propose replacing traditional policing with community-based safety initiatives. Imagine a world where instead of diverting funds to police, we invested in education, healthcare, and housing. Sounds radical? Maybe, but many are starting to see the potential benefits of this shift.
Let’s start by unpacking the movement that catalyzed this conversation—the "defund the police" movement. This slogan first took hold in the U.S. and has become synonymous with calls to reallocate police budgets to community support programs. Supporters argue that by investing in social services like mental health care and affordable housing, we can address the root causes of crime, such as poverty and inequality, rather than responding with punitive measures.
