Without this grant, we will lack crucial knowledge about the extent of police violence globally, about how to prevent it, and about how to transform police forces into agencies that protect civilians rather than perpetrate violence against them.

Finally, it included an educational component to train police officers from around the world on how they can work to mitigate police violence within their own agencies.

After winning it, my plan was to dedicate the resulting book to him. Now, I am not sure that I will be able to finish the book. Aside from this loss, and the obvious job loss for my students and post-doc, each termination comes with a cost to losing knowledge.

This is the most prestigious award that the NSF gave out to junior scholars and something that my dad had always pushed me to apply for and hoped I would win.
