In the midst of the unprecedented challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the world witnessed a surge of protests against police brutality and racial injustice. These protests, ignited by the tragic deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and countless others, laid bare the deep-seated systemic racism and excessive force that pervade law enforcement practices in many communities.

Against this backdrop, the groundbreaking book "We Still Here: Pandemic Policing, Protest, Possibility" emerges as a powerful and timely exploration of the intersection of policing, protest, and the profound possibilities that emerged during this tumultuous period.

A Multifaceted Narrative

"We Still Here" is not merely a collection of essays or a catalog of events. It is a meticulously crafted narrative that weaves together personal stories, incisive analysis, and visionary insights from a diverse array of contributors. These voices include activists, scholars, journalists, and community leaders who have been on the front lines of both the protests and the ongoing struggle for police reform.

Through these multifaceted perspectives, the book delves into the complexities of policing in the pandemic era, exposing the ways in which the crisis both exacerbated existing problems and created new opportunities for transformative change.

Transformative Stories of Resilience and Resistance

At the heart of "We Still Here" are the powerful stories of individuals and communities who have faced police brutality and oppression firsthand. These stories are not merely accounts of suffering, but also testaments to resilience, resistance, and the indomitable spirit of those who have been marginalized and silenced.

The book chronicles the experiences of protest organizers who navigated the challenges of mobilizing during a global pandemic, the struggles of families who lost loved ones to police violence, and the resilience of communities who have been disproportionately impacted by both the pandemic and excessive policing.

Provocative Insights and Policy Proposals

Beyond its powerful storytelling, "We Still Here" also offers incisive analysis and thought-provoking policy proposals. The book challenges conventional wisdom about policing and public safety, arguing that the current system is fundamentally flawed and in need of radical transformation.

The contributors propose a range of innovative solutions, from community-based policing models to transformative justice initiatives. They also provide concrete recommendations for policy changes that could reduce police violence, improve accountability, and build trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve.

A Call to Action for Collective Transformation

"We Still Here" is more than just a book; it is a call to action for collective transformation. The book's contributors argue that the pandemic has created a unique opportunity to reimagine policing and public safety in ways that are more just, equitable, and responsive to the needs of all communities.

By sharing the stories, insights, and policy proposals contained within its pages, "We Still Here" empowers readers to join the movement for change. The book provides a roadmap for creating a future where everyone feels safe, respected, and valued, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or background.
