@BancoZodd @this_is_frantzy @DrAbramL @bookkeepPLUS @johnandrewwords I keep telling you to use local data. There are many studies that show a more diverse force in some areas does decrease police escalation. https://t.co/mmH94rFrW4
Extremely dubious of effect sizes in this cross-sectional study (black police chiefs reduce police shootings), but since police chiefs change periodically, eventually we should have enough data to use a design that leverages the changes within cities. http
New paper finds that jurisdictions with Black police chiefs have fatal shooting rates that are ~50% lower than those with White police chiefs. A very interesting finding, but there is reason to be skeptical. #AcademicTwitter https://t.co/3U61hz8XhD https
