The Wars Are Here: How the United States’ Post-9/11 Wars Helped Militarize U.S. Police

Paper

Six years after the germinal United States protests against anti-Black police violence
in Ferguson, MO, and months after the 2020 police killings of George Floyd and Breonna
Taylor, police in mine-resistant vehicles have once again occupied both the streets and mass
public attention. 

Since 9/11, $1.6 billion of military equipment has been transferred to law enforcement.
