Narrator: Craig Futterman

What is the impact of law enforcement policies on the public sphere in inner city communities?  How do these policies affect public discourse in these communities?  Have we de facto outlawed the street corner forum?  Have we criminalized public space in the inner city?  How will the public sphere be constituted in the "new" communities being built on former public housing sites?
