Enforcing Equality: Ep. 9: Beyond Prejudice: Cognitive Bias and Policing with Connie Morris

Host Connie Morris breaks down how cognitive biases—like confirmation bias, implicit racial bias, authority bias, affinity bias, and survivorship bias—influence policing decisions, from traffic stops to use of force and investigations.

The episode outlines practical strategies for reform, including implicit-bias training, decision-making slowdowns, data transparency, body-camera reviews, and community oversight, and highlights real-world programs that have reduced disparities.
