Policing in America: The Road to Reconciliation | Danielle Outlaw | TEDxPortland

- Chief Danielle Outlaw takes our hand and walks us down the road to reconciliation with her views on 21st century policing. Her Idea? To restore the humanity IN authority. That the Police and the community must have a trusted relationship and embrace commonalities or we will continue to remain at a crossroads. If we are to achieve a future state of working together instead of against one another we must accept that change does not always come in the way we expect it to appear.
With special thanks to core the TEDxPortland organizing team, 70+ volunteers and cherished partners - without you this experience would not be possible. Our event history can be found TEDxPortland.com
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
After 20 years of service for Oakland’s Police Department, Danielle was sworn in as Portland’s 48th Chief of Police in 2018. With a background in sociology and business, she’s a bridge-builder and thoughtful listener who believes in the idea of “when we know better, we do better.” Her goal as Chief: inspire transformation and positive progression in 21st century policing via enhanced strategies here, and everywhere. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
I searched the definition of 'empty platitudes' and it brought me here. Now I get it
Then you either did not pay attention, or you have a problem with comprehension. Good luck on that next sergeant exam.
@@jdtown6585, you are right. What was I thinking. Upon rewatching this I realise that she clearly outlines a series of problems and posits practical solutions.
Portland should be fine now
@@melbournaut yup you're still missing the whole point. Good job, genius.
LOL you had no idea how right you were...now as commissioner in Philadelphia her officers are literally harassing citizens and she has remained silent on the issue. She talks a lot of talk but when she actually has the chance to do something about it...she doesn't.
Ouch!
Welcome to Philly.
She sounds like she can handle Philly's toughness but we will see. Protestors are one thing but these streets don't play. We got some serious issues here, I hope she understands that 'cause she's gonna have to go deep, deep, in the well. In the same respect, controlling the police, policies & practises, and what happens inside the very heart of the policing system here in Philly, getting rid of the "corruption" is what we will be watching most. It is that which will be most telling.
kuongjah7 very true!
THERE ARE SO MANY CROOKED COPS IN THE PHILADELPHIA POLICE DEPARTMENT'S SHE'S NEEDS TO START THERE AND GET RID OF THEM
I'm sure her coming from Oakland California and being a officer their, she'll do just fine in Philadelphia. Much luck to her!
Upper Commanders: "You have to get out of your cars and connect with the community."
Patrol officer: "Let's see, we're holding three domestics, two shots fired, two collisions, four general troubles, one shoplifter and a missing juvenile. Which one do you want to start for first?"
Upper Commanders: (slinks back into office)
Upper Commander resigns with a bonus and pension**
So true.
And Philly has now passed Chicago for the Highest Homicide count in America.
I am a white male that is law enforcement trained, pro-law enforcement, and a republican. what she said brought me to tears that as a community of law enforcement we have to change with the times. we have to get deep into the community to learn and grow with that community. if we do not do this we will fail as a whole.
Good thing you said youre a male because you sure are not a man
Great message. Too bad many of your white Male peers dont feel the way you do. Pussies. Salute to you though
norwalk what are you talking about soy boy
Your lying your some female from Africa who stumbled across this Ted Talk.
I used to like TEDx Talks
Likewise.
TED talks are usually good but TEDx is substandard
Welcome to Philly Chief Danielle Outlaw! WIshing you lots of success, just know as a community member I stand with you.
I agree with what she says about how internal decisions are made within the police departments. Just like in any other job in any industry, we all want to reward those who are deserving, and when those who are undeserving are promoted, rewarded, and kept despite their lack of work ethics and morals, the entire work environment suffers and employees are disillusioned, trickling down to the organization’s reputation.
Except, we have to remember that its even harder to come back from bad reputation where police are concerned, since they are supposed to serve and protect. I want to see the police and the community treat one another with respect and dignity as it should be. I hope trust can be rebuilt for all people, no matter what socioeconomic background we have.
Butterfly/treble clef tattoos - enjoys Tupac. Danielle Outlaw really is from Oakland.
I got rejected by the written state police exam in my state twice and I am someone my community supported through an election. There is definitely not good recruiting being done on behalf of the written exam folks. We need more written responses instead of multiple choice questions on there
When Danielle Outlaw was Portland Oregon chief of police Senator Jeff Merkleys staff attorney Joel Corcoran and state operations director Scott Maguire told Portland police to raid my apartment on 13th ave. Officer Combs and officer Hansen, searched my apartment along with a US Marshal. Also after I paid the Police bureau on their website for my 2013 arrest report the took my money and never gave me the report. I called Chief Outlaws staff and told them. Nothing changed and I never got my money back. I emailed and called police commissioner and mayor Ted Wheeler he emailed me and said to stop contacting him. When I emailed and called the city council nobody replied. August 10th I was released from jail. I spent 16 months in the Oregon State Hospital and two months of n jail. While in the hospital I wrote Senate President Peter Courtney a board member of the hospital who hasn't attended a meeting since 2014. Courtney is Oregon's longest serving legislature. House Speaker Tina Kotek never replied, Rep. Mitch Greenlick another State Hospital board member never replied, Oregon Health Authority executive director Patrick Allen never replied, hospital superintendent Dolly Matteucci never replied. $888 per day in federal tax dollars was paid for me to be confined at Oregon State Hospital. Approximately $420,000 for 16 months at the hospital. After I was released August 10th 2020 I was homeless. Luke Dorf which managed the apartment building where I lived on 13th would not let me back in. Before I had been arrested January 29, 2019 I emailed Luke Dorf chairman Jaime McDonald at his second job as a Tigard Oregon police commander working under police chief Kathy McAlpine. Jaime never replied to any of my emails or phone messages. While I was in the state hospital I met four other people I had lived with in the Luke Dorf building on 13th ave. Jonathan, Nathan, Kyle, and a female I never spoke with who lived on different floor. She has autism. I wrote Oregon Governor Kate Brown. Nik Blosser is the governor's chief of staff. Nobody replied. Nik Blosser is married his wife is Deborah Kafoury the chairwoman of Multnomah County where Danielle Outlaw worked as chief of Portland police. Deborah has never replied to any messages I've left for her since 2013. Deborah and four county commissioners oversee a one billion dollar yearly budget.
Law Enforcements needs to start Clean Up Their Own House first Before they go to Clean Up Other Houses..
To the Bridge And Welcome to Philadelphia And We are Proud of You. Look Forward to Meeting You. We need your help.
Kevin Poole I concur!
All facts
Officers wearing a uniform to a pride parade is not only acceptable but worthy of the croud's applause, but what if he's seen off duty out of uniform with a MAGA hat on? 2 ends of the same spectrum... wait, I didn't hear any clapping 👏👏🏿👏🏽. her #2 man here in Philly just resigned effectively immediately, refused to work with her. This sounds like the start of something great!
Yea she’s a typical Liberal behind a badge. You can tell a mile away.
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Welcome to Philly
I like her already; so Philly lets give her our Support 100%........Love for her to have a voice on WURD radio.
Chief of police of less than 900. I don't think small town policing works in the Big cities. The mayor is clueless and he should of bought back Charles Ramsay. I wish her luck though. Philly Philly
@@dman357 I can appreciate your open mind forsure. A big city are so much like a small town. Each precinct are like small town policing. Commissioner Outlaw is a smart person; and believe she going to due us well!
@@phillyraider4927 we'll see what happens.
First we got Kenny, then we got Krasner and now we have this one. Phila. is going down the tubes at a rapid pace to destruction.
@@charlie3639 happy new year!
So how many FAILURES have been speakers on TED Talks now?
I'm trying to decide whether outlaw is a great last name or a terrible last name
I love it
It is her married name. What's in a name is what you put out. I mean, there is a great man out there that legally changed his name to Darth Vader.
@@justincastillogayray There's another guy who legally changed his name to Heywood Jablome, too.
Police are not "authority," they are "servants." They need to remember that, and respect their employers - not the government, not the elite, but the people. In turn, they should be respected for the job they do, in the same way custodians and mailmen should be respected.
Amen. They are public servants
And they mostly are bullies. Good officers are treated poorly. That's why no good cops remain. All that's left is corruption
the "authority" is corrupt AF
no amount of reforms to the police force will fix it
There are definitely some situations where they have to be an authority figure.
@@jackthomas6952 give an inch ... take a mile or 10
@@MrGlowhound let’s hear some examples
Wait, did I miss the part about holding cops criminally liable for crimes committed under the color of authority??
Must have missed the part with accountability with the public and the repetition of the tired "acab" narrative perpetuated to excuse that non accountability. I can understand why how you missed it.
The words would be better served if directed toward criminals. If not for thieves, rapists, robbers and killers, we wouldn't need police to begin with.
This is so needed right now... especially given the chaos we are facing right now in many parts of the world!
Her police force corralled peaceful protestors under a bridge after letting them enter the highway. Then they short rubber bullets, tear gas and mace at them as they scrambled to get away. They had to run uphill through vegetation and hop a fence to reach a space where they could breathe. The rest got arrested. Is she what is needed?
Ethan Pierce you need to understand what she mean her words is strong you need to know what is community police
Life In The Swole what I understand is she has protected the police and not the people as they corral them, block off their exits and unleash tear gas, mace, and rubber bullets on the people. She has an opportunity right now, to do better, and she is not. Her strong word means nothing without positive action. Her police force has allowed white men with bats and hammers to roam the streets and use racial slurs and attack protesters under the guise of “protecting the community” the police have not only allowed them to do this but encouraged it even after the curfew they were enforcing for everyone else. What you don’t understand is how she is not being effective in the city she works for. She is working for cops, not the people, not the community.
@@ethanp1ercePortland Didn’t seem to peaceful being burned and looted by Rioters….
Imagine a Cop opening with "I'm a man, I'm over 40, I'm Italian, I'm from Queens and yes my last name is Ironic" pausing for applause between each statement about immutable attributes rather than accomplishments.
because you do it secretly with white hoods on, jealously is thick in here, I love it.
@@pulee1001 Did you just compare her ramblings to the KKK and then pat yourself on the back for being woke? Bless your heart.
Still laughing at you, she still chief, but what are you besides bitter and uneducated, I love it... ignorance, please stay that way you - CZcams thug tough guy
@@pulee1001 She "is still chief". Who tha thug now?
She said a lot without saying anything!! The first thing you have to do lady is root out all the bad cops and put them jail or in the unemployment line. Then after that start from there because some officers don't deserve to wear a badge. Which I believe is usually around half of the police in this country.
Well she also did a lot without doing anything.
made it to 10:01.
Please. I pray you're for the people and not the blue code
How do you expect to EARN the publics trust when the counter-productive "war on drugs" is still going on?
Joshua Lantto by letting thugs beat citizens on the streets a block away from the police station.......
Sinbad "transitioned"?
16 minutes of commentary about the obvious. Very little substance about “how” she suggests the chasm of distrust of law enforcement by a segment of the greater community can be accomplished. She established bona fides not with the breadth and quality of her experience in policing, but with emphasis on her ethnicity, gender, and selection to a command position, implicitly because of the preceding personal characteristics.
Chief Outlaw began to speak of a very relevant issue: the exercise of authority. Unfortunately, she failed to explore the issue in favor of simple reference to the source of L/E authority, the community. This is objectively inaccurate; authority is derived from law/statute enacted by elected representatives of The People. Her simple reference, however, did resonate to a significant problem that plagues community perspective of policing and L/E’s exercise of authority. Prevailing subjective attitudes about policing, many born of bias and misinformed fear, manifest in anarchistic politics and court of public opinion, have extraordinary adverse impact on how L/E exercises lawful authority. All one must do is examine her agency’s response to AntiFa’s takeover of Portland’s streets to see the truth of this.
To the theme of the talk, she said we must ‘embrace commonalities... (and) the 21st Century’, for whatever that subjectively means (because she didn’t explain or provide context). She said we must have ‘difficult conversations’ - duh - yet singles out only ‘disenfranchised communities’. I would hope she has a broader aspect and is professionally committed to engaging ALL communities in Portland in the difficult conversations. Sadly, too many in ‘disenfranchised communities’ refuse to have productive, open-minded civil dialogues and are, in fact, obstructions to participating in bridge building Chief Outlaw hopes for.
The Chief was raised and grew up professionally in Oakland (CA), so she’s familiar with the harsh, self-serving realities of crime and violence. Unfortunately, it appears that her political experience at OPD, influenced by Oakland’s social justice political bent, has informed her management style. I don’t begrudge her this experience... I simply observe its a strategy of community placation that has failed in Oakland and only solves, however temporarily, political concerns.
You know what I don't even have to read everything to sit there and know that this is the most intelligent thing on this you made more accurate points than she even bothering to and when I'm done commenting on yours I'm going to answer her damn questions in a way that just catastrophic
I’d like to see her try to arrest me by herself with no gun. Giving these types of women authority but yet they don’t understand their own place. Modern women are out of order.
With what happen now people need to understand the community know the surrounding not by saying oh one bad thing from a some or law enforcement is just sometimes police are learning the community as the same way u move in into a new town or city
Give them respect they are here to give what you can and space, freedom to roam
now we have her in philly...
We will see.
IF SHE ONLY KNEW THE THINGS THAT GO ON IN THE THE PHILADELPHIA POLICE DEPARTMENT'S SHE WOULDN'T WANT THE JOB WE NEED TO GET RID OF ALL THE CROOKED COPS THERE'S ALOT OF THEM YOU CAN'T EVEN TRUST THE DAM POLICE
Even such nonsense she is unable to express without reading. I think we would be pleasantly surprised when we would hear her words without reading what been wrote to her
Can you explain why you think that's nonsense?
All that talk and no substance. Long pauses between reading the speech
What happened to Ted Talks?
Great talk! Much needed in todays society !
OMF LOL
the b*tch quit, and that was the only improvement she made in Philly.
Zero command presence
Of ALL the Nations law enforcement officers with serious seniority and experience... THIS is the best Portland could come up with.. what ? No Other experienced law enforcement woman or man was in the running? This is not affirmative action this is the 'girls club' and we all no every women felt about the mens club!
bicanoo_magic More than likely the only one who would take the job. You couldn’t pay me enough to run the police department in Portland
@@dustinshear3857 Hahahaha... Hey I never thought of that... of course who would WANT to be part of that mayhem..That reputation would follow you around like a Skunk smell for the rest of your life.
Oops
thanks from philly
It’s probably time to resign Danielle, you’re allowing citizens to be beaten on your streets..........
Give me a break. The LAST thing any of the "communities" want is to be one with yours.
Basically nothing
I wish commissioner Outlaw all the luck in the world because Philadelphia desperately needs to get their act together. Crime there is becoming worse than Chicago.
Didn't work...
Do you live in Chicago?
Chief Scott Thompson of camden county metro nj deserves the credit for these ideals because he actually managed to CHANGE AN ENTIRE police force city and the opinions that civilians have of the police in that city! He did an amazing job and this is coming from someone who is homeless has been an addict and had a lot of problems with the police. I hope she helps philly but I dont think she will get respect I dont think she should have been given the job there were much more qualified individuals
I wonder how many ppl she framed.... The bigger the bust the better the boost.
Fluff
Community policing is the key no other way
Give me you wallet, and I also want matching PINs with your credit cards!
Alot of Good Talk but No Solution is gonna be Implemented,......the same was told Decades ago,..........If she is the one in charge, how is it that she doesn't know wats been the problem and never mentioned Accountability on the Police Departments end instead of Society,..........Start with Eliminating the policy of Racial Profiling, Boom,....!
Her speech did not age well lmao
Chaos is coming to philly cheesesteak.
@@OmegaRomik You called it.
MONTERN is spot on.. The numbers of homicides and shootings in Philly have risen to record levels since she took over as Police Commissioner. From the "Talk is Cheap" Dept. There's a saying among Navy SEALS -- "People may not believe everything you say or everything they hear about you, but they'll always believe everything you do." So I'll believe in Commissioner Outlaw when she does something that reduces all the shootings on Philly streets. Otherwise it's all just talk. Like this.
Condition of the law enforcement agencies in United States is really bad. It's time the President along with the help of military Chiefs fix this.
It will take CENTRURIES & GENERATIONS to Form Reconsiles between COPS & COMMUNITIES..
Portland the Webster definition of a public toilet
Long dramatic pauses between empty rhetoric and generalities...
I disagree with you. I think you're wrong -- the pauses aren't dramatic. 😉
And the pauses aren't all that long, either, Mr. Schmoe. 😄 Aside from those two things, I believe we are in complete agreement. 🤣 Seriously, I live right outside Philly, and the street violence has not gone down or even held steady -- it's gotten worse to record numbers of homicides since she became Police Commissioner. Her rhetoric is as empty as the chairs at the dinner tables of Philly homicide victims...
Haha. What a joke. Nice to have this out if Oregon.. (Not that it'll help anything.)
She’s a joke.
WHY YOU SAY SHE'S A JOKE🤔
500 homicides in Philly with Outlaw - a record. Poor community engagement, and threats to surveil all of us for literally spitting. What a horrible Chief. Sincerely, leave Philly.
I wanna marry her.
yuck
outlaw...really?...outlaw?...wtf?
What a joke.
Yes, you mimic hair you CANNOT grow.
You haters can stop now. Nobody cares
None of her what's should be applauded
So nobodies gonna say how good this lady look ?
She's all yours. She drips with Boss Girl attitude while spewing boilerplate nonsense and left this chief position in Portland once she realized (surprise surprise) she was a token hire.
@@Gwmcmi02 agreed. Shootings and gun homicides in Philly have risen to record levels since she took over as Police Commissioner. How effective has her talk been there? I guess whatever didn't work in Portland isn't working in Philly. This is known as reinventing the flat tire.
Blah blah blah 🐖 🐷
