More scrutiny than ever is being cast on policing around the nation, and the officers’ very existence is increasingly controversial. Many believe police abuse their power with little repercussion. Now, some Colorado police departments are working on policies that will reconnect police with their communities, including by increasing the amount of time officers are out in the communities and neighborhoods they serve. But, will it work and is it enough? This week, a real talk about Colorado’s plans to change how police interact with the public — and regain their trust.

Real Talk airs on CPR News and KRCC on Fridays at 3:30 p.m. and Mondays at 6:30 p.m. The TV show airs on Denver7 on Saturdays at 5:30 a.m. and Sundays at 5:30 p.m. It also airs on Local3 on Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. and Sundays at 6:30 p.m.
