BRONX, NY
.- In a year when millions of Americans poured into the streets demanding changes in police strategy, training and deployment, the Bronx Documentary Center (BDC) believes a crucial part of the conversation should be Joseph Rodríguezs photo series and just-released book, LAPD 1994.
The BDCs online exhibition with images and text from Rodríguezs book gives us an up-close and personal look at the cops, victims, and violent perpetrators in working-class communities of Pico Union, Rampart, and South Central Los Angeles.

Thatâs a sobering statistic. At least, it should be.
Year in and year out, hundreds of local children suffer abuse. It can be physical, sexual, mental or emotional. Itâs an ugly reality, and itâs one nobody likes to face. But we must face it because it is happening, and itâs happening here at home.
The Childrens Advocacy Center, which provides several services for children who have been victims of abuse, provided services for more than 220 children from Lamar and Red River counties in 2019. Advocates feared Covid-19 pandemic guidelines that kept children at home would allow abusive situations to fester, and it appears that could be true. Through June, the Childrens Advocacy Center had provided services for 158 children â a 30% uptick from the same time in 2019. A few months later, the tally rose to more than 210 local children. That was up 40% from the same time in 2019.
