Undue Police Violence Toward African Americans

Title:
Undue Police Violence Toward African Americans: An Analysis of Professional Counselors’ Training and Perceptions
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Darius A. Green, PhD and Amanda M. Evans, PhD
Description:
Green and Evans (2021) stated that data suggests that African Americans are more likely to experience threats, profiling, and traffic stops by officers and are more likely to perceive an officer’s use of force as excessive than White Americans. Direct exposure to undue police violence (UPV) has mental health implications, and the impact of UPV on African Americans is disproportionate compared with White Americans. However, little is known about counselors’ beliefs, knowledge, and skills in addressing UPV. This Continuing Professional Development resource provides counselors with a rationale to understand the beliefs, knowledge, and skills of counselors associated with Undue Police Violence (UPV), Explain the relationship between the perception of officer legitimacy, beliefs held about UPV, perceived racism, and beliefs on preparation and on efficacy to address UPV, and recognize recommendations for researchers and counselors.
