The second portion of the recording features a panel discussion on diversity and policing moderated by Frank DelVecchio. The panelists include Gurbir Grewal, Michael Saudino, Rev. Gregory Jackson, and Councilwoman Dana Martinotti. Topics discussed include the impact of diversity on policing in suburbia; the impact of diversity as it relates to schools and law enforcement; the ways that diversity has impacted policing at the local level; how the "Ferguson effect" might have impacted policing in Bergen County; the impact of racial difference on police, community, and school relations; whether there should be changes in how police officers are trained; equipment that police departments use such as body cameras.
