an india in those times i have worked with nearly every single lot of the schools in this district i know how the school works and i know what type of education the children are getting but then also i went to the school board to stop school closures i went to the sky word to start with for man and other things and i felt like how the board operates so that i believe i have enough experience that i they should go i believe the way they should go is the way they should act as an adult i believe that the school is there to provide the training ground where they can practice how they should be paid as an adult we are failing the children in this respect we are not training them right one of the things we have we have some children go to school and they never have a textbook not in any subject they get handouts every day you can't teach a child that that's not the way to teach a child i believe that we need better textbooks i believe that we need to equalize the education we have some schools are pretty good we have some schools are bad and we have been promised by the board that they would equalize this education but they haven't done it and i believe that every school should have a high quality education if we could get our children educated they would not get into gains and yet in the balance and all these other things i believe that every child i don't care where you come from he needs an education and we should be giving that educated to him and sticking to that i want to see that they these children get an education we have a fifty percent of our kids are failing college entrance  exam that is not acceptable we have not taught them math we got rid of the math book and started playing psychological games with them and so we need to go back to a textbook that gives a real adding subtracting is the recruited and hiring and we're going to be hiring a lot of officers over the next few years we're also talking about it's not just a hiring process that's part of what you're asking but it's also living a better understanding of the community and a different way of interacting the community so one is changing the training from one which is commanded troll to listening and understanding him explaining to they're working in all of these things are critical getting the right people having the right training interacting with the community with equity and dignity senator kerry i want to go back to the issue of the caribbean i think the fact that we have community bid for decisions are pretty indians very poor but i also want to go back to the fact that talked about before that there seems to be some cultural barrier within the police department and i actually think that's probably going to take some sort of study the city's going to have to launch in conjunction with perhaps a university that specializes in public safety issues because until we figure that out i don't think we're going to get the numbers of people in the police force who represent the diversity in this community so i want to go back to that basic basic fact secondly i have urged the bill to change and stated that we actually have the seattle police academy so that our police officers are entirely towards immigrants refugees and communities of color why do you think changing the sheet police will change the perspective and policy of the police department by itself won't hiring  model so for example we talked about the eleven for we went out to town halls listened to people over three thousand people we hired from the community to bring people to us to tell us where we would go where they were so we did something  groups selected people to come together for a summit in each community but it wasn't just that we were that it was the mayor's office it was the police officers themselves from the precinct to do that average and what we heard from all the participants that for the new america program i restore the funding for the refugees food program i led to her i wrote the original dream act bill allowing young people who came here as children undocumented access to the stage and you know the reason i became an interest of those issues actually started when i was a kid my grandparents who lived in new york my grandfather would tell me when he came to this country he would see signs in the said help wanted but underneath it said no irish need apply and i knew my grandfather and knowing what he suffer there really won't have to be the issues that you all face in this country and that's why i so thank you for the extra time i gotta work in a very high tensions had us here on very good intentions issues i work in a situation where the two parties disagree pretty significantly the sierra club because i care deeply about the environment and the future and when i ran for office it was the first time i'd ever run for office and i think a lot of people in your communities and elsewhere across the city were fair and square this mayor care about us and that was a fair question and we facebook types of the first thing i did was go out to talk to people the first thing we worked on was are your family initiative where we spoke to people that education we double the families and education levy expanded school based health centers hours through our media as well i did and ran for office because it really care about the future you know one more thing on the budget when we have the budget we made cuts and never cut human services and i never cut any touching ar look in the future to be able to tell our children we did everything we could to build a place where everybody every culture was respected treated with the equity we lived everybody up and we do something about  if we're going to address it and then the last is what is our community expectation for what we should be doing if we need to help our community first of all that this is a hot spot will that make sense to them and in particular if we tell them that there are certain place based risk factors at play in this place will they understand that and two will that make sense to them so if we go to our community and we identify root causes says there's a number there's a high number of the saw on this corner will the folks who live in that area agree with back does that make sense to them these are all of the things that we're going to think about when we're trying to decide what we can do about it because if it doesn't make sense to them you're probably not going to get them involved in the solution because they're going to go it doesn't that's not the problem so we have to make sure that we have the last word in here so let's start with the first one in terms of prevention science right what does the science tell us what are the kinds of factors risk factors are so seeded with juvenile crime to rely on our expert charlotte who is going to help us with that conversation so please help me welcome it might be for privacy it might be just sheer boredom it might be because of drug abuse or mental illness many examples of why people commit crimes but it's difficult for us in the community it's difficult for the police the research tells us is the lack of supervision and watchfulness at places now we can think about watchfulness supervision guardianship all different words the same idea we can think about for different types of guardianship playing in the street that's a form of informal guardianship and when you don't have things like this going on crime can happen now imagine you're walking down the street where abandoned buildings you're probably going to be a more feasible by the fact that all this people are out there and they might seem out and then also you know the people who are watching out on the street could call the police to help you out if something does happen to you and now i'm asking where everybody's watching out somebody might call managers are very close and these are people who are not specifically paid to prevent crime like security guard the police officers but just by being there they provide guardianship and deter others from committing crimes so these are people like gas neighborly and getting to know each other now is it neighborliness collective effort to see if a lot of this means that people don't trust each other in the neighborhood rather place then looking out for each other and this creates some of those problems of lack of says bad design right it's ugly it says maybe have about how this place looks the wall remembers guardianship you can see what's going on behind that will so anyone who goes in there it could become a target for crime because it's hard to see what's going on once they get behind that wall and it's the same for the liquor store in the picture i mean if you were passing by and there was a robbery going on in that store you wouldn't be able to tell because of all that's fine because the windows store lay outs in a public areas can also be badly designed and it might encourage people to commit crimes so for example if you own a store and who would be your valuable and easy to steal i say it's right by the door it's going to be very easy people just run in there take what they want and leave and they can easily escape if you're in a bar that has an outside c c area and you can tell where the seating area and it's in the street again you could end up violating alcohol or simply by taking committing crimes early cation and it might be because the liquor store in that place doesn't bother to check their id and make sure that it's not selling right and then finally there may also be some rules that make it harder for people to do the right thing
