Discover Weyburn (Canada) 15/6/2021 News Racist Victimization, Legal Estrangement and Resentful Reliance on the Police in Sweden Scholarly literature offers much insight into aggressive policing of racial minorities. However, research is not equally extensive regarding the experiences of racial minorities with law enforcement when police response might be decisive for their sense of recognition and protection as a community. Bridging debates from critical race studies, hate crimes and legal cynicism, this paper addresses how policing of racist victimization is experienced by members of racially targeted communities in Sweden. Drawing on interviews with people having personal and/or vicarious experiences with racist victimization, I analyze resentful reliance on the police through the concept of legal estrangement. While most respondents describe police treatment in somewhat positive terms, there is a shared resentment at the police due to the lived experience that racism often remains undetected. Previous interactions with law enforcement also pave the way for accumulated skepticism toward the utility of the policing of racial hatred. Disenchantment with law enforcement notwithstanding, reliance on the police manifests a will not just to be recognized as a victim, but also to make the pervasiveness of racism more visible. Social and Legal Studies 15/6/2021 Research article OCDSB passes motion to end police presence in schools CANADA: Report highlights concerns about discrimination and wellness checks from community CBC News (Canada) 15/6/2021 News Public Relations and Public Service: Police Departments on Facebook Academic research on police departments’ use of social media has emerged over the past decade, often focusing on large, metropolitan police departments, from what they post, to how they interact with the public, to how they manage a social media presence during times of conflict such as riots. Largely missing from the research is empirical data on how police departments of various sizes employ communication strategies on social media. This research addresses this gap by analysing the use of Facebook by police departments of various sizes, from large cities to medium-sized suburbs and small rural towns in the Northeastern United States. Findings suggest that public relations-focused content is top-of-mind for departments of all sizes, though other content priorities vary, likely based on the size and nature of the community in which they operate. Additionally, the public uses a range of reaction options on posts, although the long-established Like reaction continues to be the most used.
