The Civilian Complaint Review Board kicked off the year uptown, with the NYPD watchdog holding 2023’s first monthly board meeting at Harlem Hospital Center last Wednesday, Jan. 11.
For local violence-interruption groups like Street Corner Resources—who filled the auditorium’s first three rows—the meeting offered an opportunity to air out concerns Black and brown youth face with policing. During the meeting, community members also questioned the CCRB’s efficacy, as the watchdog can only offer recommendations to the police commissioner on matters pertaining to office allegations of misconduct, which some felt was a potential conflict of interest. No representatives from the NYPD were present to participate, although several self-identifying ex-members of law enforcement dialed in to share their comments.
City Councilmember Gale Brewer and Deputy Borough Pres. Keisha Sutton-James attended the meeting. Brewer suggested that the CCRB’s budget be tied with the NYPD’s in order to keep pace with the police department.
