This week on She Thinks, Rafael Mangual joins to discuss the crime crisis in America. As violent crime continues to be a major concern for Americans, we delve into the data. We cover where crime has hit new highs, the policies that have helped and the policies that have hurt, and what we can expect as elected officials are now focused more on supporting police versus defunding them. In other words, are we headed in a better direction?Rafael Mangual is a senior fellow and head of research for the Policing and Public Safety Initiative at the Manhattan Institute and a contributing editor of City Journal. His first book, Criminal (In)Justice, will be available in July 2022, and his work has been featured in a wide array of publications, including the Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, New York Post, and The New York Times. He's currently serving a four-year term as a member of the New York State Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.--She Thinks is a podcast for women (and men) who are sick of the spin in today’s news cycle and are seeking the truth.
