    When we define racism as behaviors instead of feelings, we can measure it -- and transform it from an impossible problem into a solvable one, says justice scientist Dr. Phillip Atiba Goff. In an actionable talk, he shares his work at the Center for Policing Equity, an organization that helps police departments diagnose and track racial gaps in policing in order to eliminate them. Learn more about their data-driven approach -- and how you can get involved with the work that still needs to be done. (This ambitious plan is part of the Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.)

    I just listened to Phillip on the Jon Steward podcast & OMG I am now a fan of this intelligent man. Not only has he studied the issue, he has placed himself into the education system at Yale, comes from a place of knowing because he comes from the affected communities, but he is placing himself into the equation by speaking the truth where he can. Bravo Sir, you are a true hero & I applaud you.

      It's not an easy problem to fix, It's like saying "just tell every black person to never commit a crime". Easy right? The system is broken but just stay off the radar of police by living straight arrow life. I understand once you have record its hard, but not impossible

      Actually... A majority of crime victims are white victims of white perpetrators. 95% of them in fact. And yet black people, in a country where we are only 12% of the population, still make up 40% of people in the prison system. THAT is racism. Are you aware of the fact that many scholars believe that the prison system was specifically engineered to be the legal continuation of slavery?

But it's that simple, just treat everyone with the same respect, don't worry about "am I being racist if I do this?/ will this person do this, since they are X race?/ what if a person of another did this, would it be ok?" etc etc. All too common and all too useless, this obsession with race that some americans have is the problem.

      Read "Desiderata" (Desiring) by Max Ehrmann... don't only read it...start by applying the principles (one at a time) in your own life and your daily interactions with others...then make your own judgements.
      Thinking about something kinda weirds me out, but I just turned 72 yo two weeks ago. I am just a regular person, nothing special and I wouldn't stand out in a crowd. But in my sophomore year of high school two of my friends (in a friendly way) nicknamed me "Deep"!!! I could never get a real direct answer from either of them as to how they came up with that name. I assume it's because I'm always thinking about things and people, etc. and how to make things better. My family upbringing, childhood, etc. is something that I certainly wouldn't want to relive or wish on anyone else; but as the saying goes: "that which does not kill us makes us stronger!" I'm not particularly religious, but I thank God every morning for the chance to wake up, get up, and maybe improve the world in some way. Then at night I thank Him again for a terrific day and apologize for not doing more and better that day. I don't know how else to do it.
      There are so many people who could sure use a bright smile and a pleasant word.
      Try it, and if it doesn't work for you, let me know, and I'll gladly refund your full price, including all applicable taxes plus shipping and handling!!! 😀

      Read and listen to positive articles, CDs, etc., by Mort Crim, Zig Ziglar, Tony Robbins, and numerous other positive people. You might want to start hangin' with positive thinking people. You get what you give. Don't look for what you will receive, only be grateful for whatever you MIGHT receive; and if nothing comes your way, be Eternally grateful for that also!!!
      This isn't Pollyannish thinking. But you do have a free will and infinite choices to make each and every second of your life. Even if you don't believe that at this moment, at least take five minutes to think that over!!!
      Improving and changing your life is like taking a small bush or plant and by correct pruning, and shaping using your imagination plus patience, "creating" a wonderful Bonsai 🌲!!! The more you do it, the easier it is to do!!!
      The neatest and best thing of all is that it is yours because it came out of YOUR MIND AND YOUR IMAGINATION!!!

If we truly want the big ideas to flourish, social matters must be dealt with so that every kind of person has the capability to contribute to these ideas, turning them into _huge_ ideas. Technology and science will always be limited by the conditions of society (one of the reasons, I feel, why more socially problematic countries are usually less developed), therefore increasing this threshold is as important.

      To me this sounds like:
      "If you use data to solve every problem there is, then racism will be solved in the process"
      To be fair, this conclusion would be less 'click bait' if that is what he means, however the notion that "data is the solution to all problems" seems as likely as a 12 minute TED talk contains the answer to the ancient problem is racism.

    • @JoshKaufmanstuff
      @JoshKaufmanstuff Před 4 lety

      @Jaylin Broan that sounds pragmatic, but how do you apply the cure once the data identifies a 'hot spot'?
      I.e. data showes that altercations occur often in a certain location in town. What is the fix?
      Do you tell officers not to unstrap thier guns in this area? Or perhaps only when confronting someone of a particular race? Or to ignore potential suspects of a certain profile if data showes this demographic is disproportionately apprehended?
      How does"using data" to solve issues involving race any different than being more effective at solving problems effecting everyone? How do you identify that race is a factor in the first place?
      I volunteer at a county jail. There is disproportionate number of minorities incarcerated to the population ratio. Data alone would suggest this indicates injustice and racism. So if you tabulated the causes of the most common offences (over 90% involve drugs/alcohol) how do you apply the fixes in such a way to particularly address racism?
      The heart of racism is discrimination. If the solution requires discriminating *for* a particular group rather than *against* said group then you are fighting fire *with* fire.
      I applaud all efforts to solve this deeply entrenched issue, but to say that you are going to address the actions only, and that it is possible to sift actions with a racist filter sounds like the solution merely requires more computing power, or a new database.
      I hope the speaker is right, and the advent of a new supercomputer will finally usher in harmony, because changing the rules is all that is needed by the government.

    Also the best way to be respected it's by talking in a good way with officers and people who dont like you, teach them that you can be a good neighbor, just act calmly(remember that a lot of hispanics commit crimes, so you must show the example that you're different) and tell/talk everything with good manners, i promise you that everyone will respect you, will forget their "racism" or bad ideas about you based in your standard community behaviors and will think that you're a good person.

    When you send a criminal deterrent ( a police officer) who is trained in being adversarial in a country that that feels being adversarial is the first solution you get people who are amazed that caring is the solution when it should just be obvious. Also the person speaking even though he means well has been trained in his schooling how to think, the manner in which thinks is ineffective for the problem he is trying to tackle. The focus should not be on the police departments at all unless the police departments are going to be reinvented as support units for the homeless, drug addicted, mentally unwell or depressed lost individuals who need help not arrest and incarceration. Once incarcerated peoples lives become very difficult to turn around as their is no social stigma greater than that of a person who has been to prison. Once you start to care for people and not care about colour you automatically change the environment and you can start creating trust.

      It seems silly to talk about 'THE focus' when dealing with a problem as big as racism. Correcting police behaviours according to statistical data is a fantastic focus (notice 'a', because it's one of many). You're right to imply that there are many problems giving rise to racist attitudes - and these problems all deserve focus. Most of these problems are deep-seated cultural ones, and it will take a lot of thought, planning, educating and social working to deal with them at the roots. That's years of work. In the mean time, if we can focus SOME of our efforts on curbing racially-driven police misbehaviour RIGHT NOW, while we work on the other stuff, that's great, isn't it?
      The speaker probably didn't clarify this because (1) it's obvious and (2) he didn't have space in his allotted 12-minutes to clarify the obvious.

      @@richardernsberger5692 After the fact is too late. The caring response is required prior so it minimalises negative outcomes. It is a naive view of economists to believe that not spending on support for people that need it is somehow saving. Spending the money on supporting people that need help reduces the costs of courts, policing and jailing. It also improves social behaviour due to having a society that cares but that is another topic. For me personally I believe that for people who commit serious crimes that they are never released but put to use in a controlled environment that benefits society so that the costs of incarceration are covered by their own work efforts.

    The true issue with police brutality is the police treat communities like they are a occupying military force, making the community feel like they are under siege, and when people feel like that they are not willing to share their concerns with law enforcement. No one wants to live in a community that is unsafe that is a truism, as long as a community feels like they are under siege, they will always feel a distrust towards law enforcement. But this concept will go way over the heads of the commentators on this video.

People never really want to believe themselves in the wrong, which is why it's often so difficult to get people to see their errors, no matter how much data you show them. Throw in the fact that a lot of the problems police have are policies (and sometimes laws) which are theoretically designed to make their job safer but have a counter-productive effect...

    I am from Russia. In our country, we have a wave of Muslims from the Northern Caucasus who behave toward us too arrogant not even listening to our opinions. And what I want to say to you?
    People most commonly mix up such terms as racism and xenophobia. As for me, to be quite honest, I can hardly accept racism but I can understand xenophobia. Xenophobia is a fear of another culture. Whenever I face Muslims, for example, or Caucasians, I start to feel not very well because of the difference between culture. I have no desire to share my society with people from the Islamic world since they don't respect many humanistic ideals such as tolerance to homosexual, treating women as equal and etc.
    And this is not racism even though many people keep declaring exactly like this. People are not the same around the world. A lot of nations have strange habits like killing animals and stuff like that.

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.What's wrong with racism?

    racism is a form of groupism. group antagonism typically develops when there's economic scarcity and therefore competition, and thus the need to defend one's own group against another group, and possibly exploit this other group. so racism is not "bad", it is a scarcity-based (and therefore competition-based) cultural aspect. in other words, racism is a form of cultural warfare, a cultural aspect in function of competition. so is competition bad? no, it is scarcity-based. [main source: peter joseph, the new human rights movement, czcams.com/video/GvkchZADaaA/video.html ]
    nowadays we do know that other races are not inferior, they just have different types of intelligence /skills that are adapted to different types of activities /environments. telling this to people may help, but a root solution to groupism remains something like ubi (currently being proposed by presidential candidate andrew yang): it would reduce the need for competition by giving everyone some economic self-sufficiency (thus reducing the need for groupism and racism), as well as generally reducing people's need to sell something or themselves for a living.

But what if different groups behave differently from each other? Is it really statistically honest to assume blacks behave the same when confronted by police during a police stop, or arrest?
    In the example the speaker gives he highlights the homeless getting into more frequent contact with police violence. Well isn't it to be expected that people who have substance abuse issues, mental health problems and little to lose will be less cooperative with police? They didn't solve the problem by making sure police engage with the same likelyhood of violence with homeless as they do with non homeless. They solved it by simply have the police deal much less with homeless. How would what pan out with a larger portion of traffic stops gang country running into non compliant drivers?

    A lack of Father's in Black families leave a discipline hole that is only confronted when they run into underpaid over stressed cops. This guy wants to blame everything but that. Another pointless TED talk...

      The speaker doesn't seem to me to be blaming racisim in policing on anything, let alone 'everything but'. His point is that racism is usually defined in a wishy-washy sense, which makes it hard to tackle. You can't target and deal with racist sentiment as accurately as you can racist behaviour, because emotions - unlike behaviours - can't be measured in a very concrete way. As far as I can tell, the talk is much more about countering racist acts, rather than figuring out what gives rise to them.
      There is an avalanche of cultural factors giving rise to racist behaviours, attitudes and stereotypes. Putting it down to missing father-figures and broke/stressed cops is rather narrow-minded and unhelpful, don't you think?

    How many times do you lube your head in the morning. Typically, I dont lube my head more than 6 times, due to politics. I think that my mother will disown for those actions.
