The verdict in the Derick Chauvin has put a spotlight on police abuse in the African American community. Delmarva Public Media's Don Rush talked with James Nolan, a former Wilmington Police Officer who now teaches socialology at West Virginia University. Nolan says much of the problem lies in the strictly law enforcement approach to the community by officers.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
