To all community members,
Salutations, presenting and leading diversity training for your community's criminal
justice professionals was an honor. I am sending an offer to the nearby law enforcement
institutions, every board member, and community members to join in the seminar and the talks
that will be held at the nearby Convention Center as a token of appreciation for enabling me to
come back and give additional training. I will discuss research on the various perspectives that
local cultures have of law enforcement officials and the kinds of miscommunications that can
occur between them and the public they serve during this event. Relevant information about the
subjects and problems that will be examined and discussed is attached. I'm excited to come
back, can't wait to see yall!
Sincerely,

Change the Perception
, It's easy to ignore the wide variety of different subcultures and cultures that exist in your
neighborhood. This encompasses Asian, Native American, and the comparatively sizable
Hispanic populations. What cannot be disregarded, though, is the way that these communities
see the local criminal justice system and law enforcement officers who have vowed to defend
and serve them. Regretfully, the favorable perception that one could aspire for does not always
apply to these groups. This may be because certain people of the community receive harsher
penalties, they are underrepresented in law enforcement recruiting, and certain communities
have a high police presence based more on cultural background than on real necessity. We will
explore these ideas in this conversation about the many cultures in your town in an effort to find
answers to better them.
Understanding the Misunderstandings
When interacting between police and civilians, one common question that arises is "why
are they unable to understand?" Not only can law enforcement ask this question, but civilians
can also ask it, so miscommunications between the two groups are the root cause of problems
involving questions like that. We have to acknowledge that the system of justice needs to alter
and adapt to the nation as a whole because of the everyday ethnic disparities we encounter.
Language barriers frequently make law enforcement difficult, according to Carlos Quiroz of the
Latino Leadership Council of California, "If the police do not properly reflect the community
they serve, it is difficult for the community to see it as a force that represents them rather than
one that polices them. This leads to crimes not being reported, witnesses not coming forward
