Behind Blue Doors
With this podcast, we hope to provide police lamplighters, allies, and those who stand up against misogyny and corruption with a safe space and an anonymous platform (if desired) to elevate their silenced voices. Recognizing the trauma and stigma many victims face, we are here to put an end to victim-blaming and the minimization of trauma. Allies also join us to discuss various policing topics.
