Police-community collaboration is critical to renewing the values of America and the lifeline of public safety throughout the nation.

Over the past two years, I have addressed the criticality of positive police-community relations in my columns for the Epoch Times, and respectfully encourage a review of these articles.

Although these articles honestly address police-community controversies, they always provide solutions and accentuate the positive by encouraging a unity of effort since protecting our communities is a shared responsibility.

America must rise to the occasion with an unwavering commitment to facilitate police-community collaboration, the lifeline of public safety.
