MOSES' PEOPLE

SPEAK

Race, Conversations, and Law Enforcement

Moses' People Speak (MPS) is geared towards the law enforcement community, educational institutions, and community members/organizations whose mission is to participate in the conversation of criminal justice reform. Each webisode features a guest who speaks power through their truth with the goal of creating a better culture.  The term "Moses' People" derives from the narratives of Moses P. Cobb and Samuel J. Battle, both of whom were known for being persistent and dedicated to breaking down racial barriers in law enforcement.
