Interrupting Serious Youth Violence 3: Privilege and Power with Leroy Logan

Tent Talks with Dr Stephen Backhouse

In episode 3 of Interrupting Serious Youth Violence Tent Talks co-host Rev. Natasha Beckles discusses power and privilege with Leroy Logan. Logan is the UK's most highly decorated and well known black police officer and is the founding member of the Black Police Association. He is the author of "Closing Ranks", which detailed his time as a senior police officer in London and had his story dramatized for television by Steve McQueen in "Red White and Blue."

Through conversations and interviews, this series takes on the systemic and personal issues that create unsafe communities for our children and looks to solutions for what schools and churches can do about it. Natasha developed these episodes in conjunction with Compassionate Communities as part of the Diocese of London. This episode's co-host includes Revd. Lara Edwards.
