Obviously in part that suggests that housing segregation is a direct cause of police violence, but it also bolsters the view that more diverse forces would be better. — PolitiTweet.org

Hoekstra & Sloan (2020) show specifically that when white officers respond to calls in segregated black neighborhoods they end up shooting at 5x the rate of black officers. In white or integrated neighborhoods there is no racial gap in shootings, regardless of victim race. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of these results may not hold up under further analysis. But frankly I think we should be skeptical of the people who claim to believe the racial identities of police officers has nothing to do with racialized policing. That would be very odd. What field is like that? — PolitiTweet.org
