What's it like to be black and in the police?
Briefly

What's it like to be black and in the police?
"I wanted to start a series of documentaries that tell the stories of incredible black people who never really get to tell their stories."
"Children come up with amazing ideas and it's about housing those ideas when they're young and investing in those ideas."
"I thought that all they try to do is capture people and arrest people. But they're trying to help people, like if someone gets lost without their parents they go and find them."
"I didn't know what the questions were going to be and I had to really think about my responses."
The series 'Change Takes All' features children interviewing current and former Metropolitan Police staff to explore the complex relationship between the police and the black community. Created by Serlina Boyd, the series aims to highlight the stories of black individuals in policing. Young interviewers, like seven-year-old Eden, gain insights into police work, realizing officers also help people. The series includes perspectives from high-ranking officers, emphasizing the importance of understanding and communication between communities and law enforcement.
