Policing the Police.
On Thursday, Professor Clifford Stott will join the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Hong Kong to discuss protest policing in the wake of the #HongKong and #USProtests -- sharing best and worst practices and, crucially, how to deescalate and restore public confidence.
This online event is free of charge and open to FCC members, their guests and the media. Advance registration is required.
Please join if you can.
#Teargas is banned in warfare, but NOT from protests.
It's damaging and can be used in dangerous ways.
This is what we learned during #HKProtests, sharing again now during #USProtests.
