Dr. Phillip Goff talks about Stand Your Ground Laws on 106 and Park

April 22 2012

On 106 & Park, Dr. Phillip Atiba Goff discusses "stand your ground" laws that allow individuals to use lethal force to defend themselves when they consider themselves in imminent danger. These laws have become the center of national attention — and controversy — since unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot in Sanford, Florida. Dr. Goff discusses the implications of these laws as well as how members of minority communities can prevent racial profiling.
