yteller, Dwayne Bryant delivers a timely message in The STOP - Improving Police and Community Relations. With the recent increase of police officer involved killings and misconduct (Duante Wright, Caron Nazario, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Elijah McClain and many more) during routine stops, Bryant created this book to educate youth, parents, teachers and police officers to proactively create Mutual Respect, Shared Responsibility, and Accountability in an effort to Improve Police and Community Relations; thereby helping to heal our nation.Take a journey with Dwayne as he shares seven real-life personal encounters with law enforcement from his childhood into adulthood. Some light-hearted and humorous, others dangerous and could have lead to death. With compelling narratives, research and humor, The STOP will: 1. Teach youth how to interact with police. 2. Encourage thought-provoking conversations. 3. Provide The NEW Conversation for parents to have with their children. 4. Provide a meaningful framework for Law Enforcement to create better relations with community. 5. Create a National Platform to build Mutual Respect, Shared Responsibility and Accountability between police and community. 6. Provide a framework for parents, teachers and community leaders to engage in meaningful dialogue with youth about their expectations in life. 7. Offer practical solutions to bridge the gap between the community and law enforcement. 8. Allow the Good within the community and law enforcement to join forces in order to expose the criminal element within both groups.The STOP will inspire and empower you to look beyond your initial thought and discover your own strength in resolving strained situations. You have to power to determine the final outcome. The STOP is guaranteed to have a positive impact on improving police and community relations.Learn more at www.AboutTheStop.com - www.DwayneBryant.com
