Remove know from knowledge and you are standing on the ledge. When are we going to rescue ourselves from the ledge?

Oversight versus Insight: Most of us want to oversee the situation without insight of the situation. Knowledge is King.

Education gives you the ability to know it. Intelligence gives you the capacity to fix it. Wisdom lets you know when to do it.

The police are required to enforce the law in areas where they do not live, do not eat, do not go to the barbershop. They have no interaction with the people in that community except when they are called to resolve an issue. To bridge the gap we must establish relationships with the people and communities we serve. If we don’t we will continue to have biases that grow and fester and create deadly situations.
