- Roland Fryer leads a seminar on the economics of crime, racial differences in police use of force, and how to police the police. Session recorded at UATX Live on the University of Austin campus in February 2024.
As a police officer, I so wish I could be sitting in that seat talking to Roland Fryer.
And what would you ask/tell him?
Agreed. Would love to have a panel like this with some law enforcement on panel, maybe a prosecutor, and defense lawyer. Would be awesome talk
What I think many of them are missing when talking around minute 12, is that crime didn't change yet incarceration rates went up. Whether there were more security cameras,etc. is not the question. Crime rates didn't change. Its possible that the proportion of crimes being committed became different ( more serious crimes and less minor) or/and the sentencing guidelines became longer or more strict or both. Period.
The boomers with their flower power began the decay of our countries morals in the 60s
The just-us system is a scam on the American people and taking advantage of the tax system
These are fortunate students and I’m fortunate to be able to “sit in”. Thanks.
52 yr old carpenter who secretly loves learning,. I'm listening to this on earbuds and low key got emotional at how much I was enjoying the class. Great content. Strength and love
50 yr old kitchen designer immigrant here who did not get to go to college in USA, as planned before coming . Listening to this lecture doing house chores. What a great service to put this up on You Tube.
Just turned 61 yesterday, and I call it ha! Birthday.... never stop learning!
Just know that the former Harvard president, and the admin. did everything they could to destroy Roland. Why? Because he follows truth, not narrative. A narrative they tend to like a garden to feed leftist ideology. @@OlcayAkkaya74
65 yo carpenter who has worked alongside illegals framing homes in TX. before going off to college. Roland exposes some of the means by which Uniparty elites retain power through false narratives and division. Please see the mini doc. here on youtube covering how Harvard tried to erase both him and his legacy of truth. Let's just say that his antagonist recently got exactly what she deserved.
Addicted to these long firm interviews or podcasts. We are all life long learners
Gosh this guy is so effortlessly good I could watch him all day. What a fantastic way to present a pretty dry and detailed look at policing. Roland is simply fantastic. Kudos to University of Austin for presenting this in the way.
He was basically kicked out of Harvard because of this. They pushed out one of the greatest minds they had
Not this talk specifically but for going through crime this way
There's a lot of subtle ways that police escalate an interaction with the public. That's where the violation of peoples rights come in. Police are not your friend, there is no accountability for their actions. Never bring them around your home as can harm your family and get away with it.
@@donniecilenti2631 When DEI backfires lol
@@donniecilenti2631Good thing is that Roland is back at Harvard now. I work in Law Enforcement. This data matches common sense thinking. Nobody blithely discharges a gun. They know the consequences are significant.
--Of course Police engage in 22% more use of low level of force against Black people because that demographic is where most crime and policing occurs.
--Also, Police departments send their most of their novice police officers with the least experience to the inner city. An officer’s “beat” is based on seniority and union bidding. The veterans choose the safest neighborhoods to patrol as they age.
--Roland didn’t talk about average years on the force of those cops who commit the most low level use of force. I will logically point out that cops with anywhere from 3 to 10 yrs commit the most harm to the community.
--Newer cops tend to still follow the departmental rules and are optimistic; whereas, veterans with 15, 20 or more years are looking towards retirement and don’t care to rock the boat.
--it is the mid career officers (5-15 yrs of service on the force) who become frustrated because they’re not close to retirement and they feel stuck. They carry the greatest risk of feeling the threat.
--Police departments should focus on the mid-career group to reduce mental health challenges and reduce low level use of force.
LEOs are watching this and are thankful. Thank you sir
this is the worst possible "recommendation" for this trash lol
@@brdforallseasons I'll take someone who wants to learn, talk, and invest in people than someone who doesn't know what they're doing taking the reigns and demanding compliance.
This man actually rode in the black and whites, went to calls, did his study, redid his study, and encouraged more review. Noones disproved his data yet.
Get your ass back in the cave (kitroom) if you're just gonna troll
@@brdforallseasonsHow so?
Americans need to learn their rights and their roll in keeping public servants in line.
@@rarefruit2320 people need to learn that it's not an "us vs them", it's not an occupation, that the communities provide the people who become police officers and the police officers work and police communities with the consent and faith of said community, and are a part of the communities they police.
A majority of an officers time is spent in the community they patrol. They're in that community more than they are in their own, they are also probably there more than the people who actually live in that community.
I was an Econ major at UCLA and I’m now an attorney. This seminar was incredible, it reminded me of some of the best lectures I attended in undergrad-but even better! What I would give to be able to go back in time, go back to college and take a class with Roland Fryer and be able to go to his office hours. Very jealous of the students, and thank you for uploading this for the rest of us!
Wow you didnt come out of UCLA as a Marxist? If so a good sign if critical thinking because Angela Davis turned that place into an indoctrination camp.
I grew up 22 miles east of Austin.
I am thrilled to see a university that truly allows free thought established in the part of the state where I still have family living - living there now for 6 generations.
Teach your family our Constitution until they know it and live by it
Nice area i forget the name of that state park but love it out there.
I hope so dearly that this is the beginning of the world wide shift towards sanity! Greetings from Germany
@@koschmxyes, worldwide. Because woke insanity rules everywhere in the west.
We wish
Roland Fryer is one of my favorite intellectuals!! He’s so intellectually honest, he found the exact opposite of what he wanted to find but he still accepted it and printed it all while taking great ridicule!!
His courage is unimaginable; its like a man who painstakingly goes in search of infidelity, finds out that he's been cheating on his wife all along AND publishes a paper explaining his motivation!
Yep, reminds me of Dr. Sowell.
@@ladymsthing6056 He sure does!! The world needs a lot more people like those 2
He endured more than ridicule. He endured threats to his job and career, and to his and his family's safety, even needing a police escort for awhile. He was later internally "prosecuted" on some B.S. sexual harrassment charge and was nearly fired ffom Harvard. His tormentor during this period was none other than Claudine Gay. She apparently finds Fryer to have been a harasser, but is cool with people threatening students with genocide. She's gone, thankfully, but Roland is still at Harvard. The good guys won for a change.
@lawman3966 Gay's still at Harvard too. Just no longer the President.
Love Roland Fryer, and very happy UofA is putting this together. Can't believe what this man has had to endure for truth seeking.
there is nothing more refreshing than a lecture on microeconomics. It lays things out so clearly.
Roland Frye is a national treasure. Claudine Gaye stepped on a rake pushing this man out the door.
I'm happy to see that he’s still teaching.
Harvard is controlled by the military which is controlled by the central banks and large corporations
This is great science. I love Roland Fryer's work. Thank you for sharing this and please keep them coming!
He should be chief on the department of security.
Very thankful to UATX for sharing this 🙏
What a great conversation. I wish I could afford to quit my job and go to this university to learn.
Absolutely love this. "Chicago style university, if you're not being interrupted they don't love you." Exactly three minutes in and a lady is already asking a question! Yes. We need more of this.
As a Soon-to-Retire state trooper, You're my f*@king hero!!! Thank you for saying it and making since about how you got to those points.
Great job UATX, thank you for allowing this seminar to be uploaded for free, learned quite a bit from the session. The professor is one of the least biased individuals I’ve seen on this topic.
Wonderful to see good teachers teach and bright, fearless students engage! Go Austin!
Brightest teacher: what’s the right number. How do you get better at catching people with drugs?
Brightest student: how do you get better at hiding the drugs? 1:06:00
This has me feeling nostalgic for my own time at university. I was a lousy student but this brings me back to the parts I enjoyed.
I love seeing the struggle of the, presumably, liberal students trying to wrap their head around the vehicle stop discussion. I never followed Roland Fry before but will def be keeping my eye out moving forward.
Id like to see Dr. Fryer give us a study on the economics of media narrative distortion regarding policing in the US.
Definitely! I would also love to see the advertisement agreements between police and entertainment companies or advertisement dealers
Congratulations for creating an environment to actually improve our human experience.
Buying real estate in Austin because a great institution will be born
Good call!
Smart forward thinking
How many decades do you give it, before the left takeover?
Bruh... do you know nothing about Austin??? Waaayyyyyyy too late to take advantage of that "great institution" being born as a reason. UT Austin is already probably a top 10 University in the world... and that doesn't even consider the plethora of "actual" reasons why Austin real estate is already sky high...and its only gonna get worse
It's a little late, prices already thru the roof.
This is incredible. Thank you to whoever made this happen.
hey u austin, zoom in on or share the PPT slides in the future please...
Agree. I’d like to see the equations he was referring to.
Thank you!
I believe he has his paper on the research available for free online due to its importance didnt paywall it.
His education work needs to be the basis for K-12 reform.
Uatx has been putting out amazing stuff.
This feels like what college was to me.
I studied economics in undergrad and listening to this brings so much nostalgia for those first few classes having my mind opened to the economist’s way of viewing things. Before you know it, everything’s a utility function!
Can you please please PLEASE upload more of Roland’s lectures?
I am not sure I can appreciate just how good this is. There is beauty in intellectual discourse.
Huge admirer Professor. Keep up the great work.
I can totally see Thomas Sowell in Roland. Thomas Sowell is making the exact same argument in a lot of his books that racial discrimination is a lie when it comes to loan default, or contraband search.
We have data that shows racial discrimination in loans actually more data is kept when giving someone a loan or buying a house than in policing. So I don’t think he would do something like that. Because racial discrimination is something that can be shown a lot easier in something like loans or housing compared to crime stats. My other issue is are people being truthful when this data is complied.
@@Harlem1mentalitynah, there is no racial discrimination in loans, it’s based on their credit and black people have statistically worse credit.
Lol, it’s real simple
@@Harlem1mentalitydoes the fact that black people, being 13% of the pop, committing 75% of all murders and 50% of all violent crime have something to do with it?
@@Harlem1mentality Might that "discrimination" have to do with an unwillingness to repay loans, rather than merely skin color? I swear y'all never stop the victim train. No matter how many Sowells and Fryer's we have, y'all still refuse to surrender the grift.
Wow, rational discourses instead of religious indoctrination. Awesome. I love the professor’s AI idea. Thank you for this.
It would be great to see the slides Roland is showing to the students
This was amazing. Thank you, Professor Fryer, and University of Austin.
This is such a treat. Transports me back to college while also is better than any college lesson I got
Prof blowing my mind.
This was interesting as hell and I wish I could have been part of it. Its like reading a Tom Sowell book. It must be a University of Chicago thing.
That's why he kept mentioning the University of Chicago.
On the crime stats being lower now than the 90's/ 2000's. Between the law raising the monetary threshold to be a felony causing crime reports to change, and the bail reform or police not even showing for anything less than emergency crime in progress, how many crimes are being misreported or not reported at all anymore?
Exactly. I don’t buy it.
Cops use discretion (discrimination) and won’t take reports on some crimes. To begin to understand the problem with our justice system start with the playlist I created. Notice the patterns and read some of the comments
Wow! This makes me want to attend this university! My college classes did not measure up to this quality. Not even close. Great professor!
As prior law enforcement this was excellent conversation with great perspectives. Between how we’re trained, the tools he use everyday, and taboo of mental health (in law enforcement uniquely) there’s a lot that can be talked about and improved upon.
This is very promising talk and response from the young students! Good job U of Austin!
YES, I would have love to be there presently!
I loved this, I learned so much. Thank you for putting this on utube.
Dr. Fryer🙏🏾 very brave and intelligent man.
Everytime I listen to him I get goose bumps; especially if you know what he came out of. Sure, what a mind; but also what a heart!
Amen. Yes. Hopeful for America.
Balanced. Rational. Intelligent. Somebody should hire this Roland guy as a professor.
I cant think of a more important topic that could both help a community and ease tensions in this country more than improving policing in this country. If I had a bags of 💰’s cash and was looking how to deploy it in a way to make a difference, the first place i would go would be to Roland. Give this man all the resources he needs to find real solutions to these issues to the extent that they exist. Prof. You are truly what i grew up thinking an academic was, and i am so very pleased to find at least one still exists.
How can you not love Roland?
THIS IS SOOOOO refreshing, and a much more productive way to have these conversations and discuss potential solutions to discrimination and bias concerns than the insanity that's been consuming media, politics, and DEI hypotheses. Can we please replace the latter mentioned across America with this style of education as our norm? Thank you in advance.
Nothing wrong with DEI , it actually reduces discrimination
@@Mister_Terrific806no. It doesn't.
@@kingsleyoji649 Propaganda says it doesn't , science has proven it does
@Mister_Terrific806 what science is that?
@@kingsleyoji649 Numerous hypothesis tested, peer-reviewed and published studies from the social sciences. You've most likely read none of these studies and have succumbed to propaganda, which is being convinced without appealing to reason.
What an amazing piece of content!! Thank you for posting
I grew up in the suburbs around Detroit. In the 90's you did NOT want to be in Detroit after sundown.
100%
I love this style of discussion, and really hope there is more like this to come. It would be great to be part of something like this.
I can listen to this guy all day long 💪
What’s not discussed here is the understanding of human behavior assessments that really good and professional cops do to discover contraband or criminal activity. It transcends race and culture. That’s the missing piece for many officers in having higher success rates of encountering the problems we want them to address. Cops who focus on behaviors will have much more success than if they focused on just the economics presented here. That said, this is an incredibly important discussion here to understand policing.
This is great! I do wish, however, the viewers can see the information from the TV too.
An excellent presentation. There are so many people that want to see social policy that is just and compassionate, but also driven by measurable data. Roland Fryer explains complex and frankly difficult topics in a way that is understandable and rational.
It's incredibly painful to watch the "higher educated" seem to really really struggle with entry level "critical thinking".
My analogy is when my home becomes too cluttered ( esp with unnecessary items) it’s far harder for me to find the items I actually use.
@@maine-kw6wfy I absolutely relate to the clutter vs clean, but don't think it relates well to what's going on here. There are many things at play but in my opinion the biggest is the worshipping of degrees. The guy with a PHD in agriculture knows more about farming then the 3rd generation farmer who has worked crops for 30 years. The students can't wrap their head around the professor being deranged or actually very low IQ
damn good seminar. Lots of food for thought~!
Just great! Sieh I Wish I could be a Student in that class. Auch a great scientist!
Right? I could listen to Prof. Fryer all day. He's probably the greatest thinker of our day.
Thank you
Roland is also on to something about how cops can get support and help for mental health. A friend was a cop, he didn’t stay a cop long due to the stress. He told me a little about crazy calls like a man decapitating his family. When you see that or the aftermath, How does any human regulate their emotions from that?
Ironically, the cop and the criminal-looking kid in the inner city ghetto might have very similar mental health profiles. Being a cop is a lot like being in an active war, and war is one of the most toxic things for the mind. The military knows this and treats their soldiers with this piece of information in mind (like no overly long deployments in active war zones). Police departments don't. Also, many of the ghetto kids have PTSD or at least something like it, and they've also been desensitized to violence. There is actually some research that in terms of death around an individual, life in many US ghettos is actually worse than being in an active war zone.
As a cop, I don’t want to diminish the stress the people in violent communities experience by saying my struggles are similar. I get to go home to a loving family, food security, and some reprieve from that life. I’m also getting paid for it. However, your point stands, neither should have to experience the volume of critical incidents and the subsequent trauma they bring.
Excellent discussion. This is how educators and scientists should be. Seeking the actual answer instead of trying prove political dogma. Thank you for taking the time to produce and publish this. It blessed my morning.
This is really interesting, I would love to be in this course
I would love to be a student in this room!
A master class in leading a seminar. And kudos to the students for their questions and discussion.
We need more of debates like this.
I am grateful to see Roland Fryer teaching and young adults learning, questioning and participating. UATX! Thx. 💚
This was so interesting.
Send ALL OF US the slides Roland!
I love this school. TRUE LEARNING.
What an incredible teacher! A joy to listen in!
What a great lecture! Thank you so much.
His students are freaking brilliant!
Mr Fryer should meet with Thomas Sowell.
Wow, this is so insightful and productive! Disparity in actions/outcomes comes with diversity and differences in ideas, and that is OK. Trying to equalize outcomes without proving bias is someone's political agenda at taking away people's agency
Haven't seen Roland Fryer in years and I must admit that I am really digging the locs!
He has been on youtube a lot of times but mainly if not fully to conservative channels
Amazing lecture. Thank you for sharing
Roland Fryer thank you 🙏🏽 you give hope for the future of Law Enforcement in America.
I came for a discussion of race and crime. I came out also learning about finance, mortgages and IRR and race. How does this man know so much?
I just learned valuable information on the internet~! 🤓
Amazing content, thanks for sharing.
You got Prof. Ryer guys!!! 😮 I see you don’t mess around when it comes to recruitment. Soon you will have an Avengers-level staff! 😎
Hopefully University of Austin can save Austin from itself.
I wish I could take this class...I'm jealous
Someone needs to clip this
Great discussion. I wish they would have framed it as “illegal guns” in cars. In most states and with a LICENSE to carry the police should have no problem with my legal gun(s). Guns aren’t bad. Illegal gun owners are!
There is no such thing as an illegal gun. In the US you have the 2nd amendment no?
A license would imply that it would be a right, which could be taken from you.
Please ask Roland for the slides and post a link to them for us!
This content is incredible. One thing that I think is understated here. The model he developed for the payoff of doing crime (cost benefit analysis) is likely brilliant, but it assumes doing crime as a single discrete event. When looked at would you roll a 95% heads and 5% tails you'd maybe take your chances once. However, if you roll that dice 100 times you'd expect 5 losses. Many don't understand the cumulative probability across many engagements increases towards 100%. They underweight their costs mentally.
Brilliant content.
That's what my police friend said, you don't shoot anyone unless you are defending lives, because you won't be able to deal with what happens next if it's possible to avoid.
A very satisfying Sciencing Re-search teaching by direct data observation done here in this presentation, thank you.
Common sense.
Roland Fryer , WARRIOR !
We need your insights and wisdom.
Why arnt people throwing money at the educational system you developed with Joe Canada , that raised inner city kids grades to national competative leval .
The answer Roland provides to the naïve (yet interesting) question around 18:45 mins is lucid and powerful. This sort of question has been asked by the general public to economists for many years... with generally poor answers. Roland bottomed that one down fantastically.
Awesome!!
This is incredible. Precisely what college should be. #RolandFryerSavesAmerica
15 minutes in. This is terrific. More of this please.
It would be cool if the slides were visible
Would be helpful to be able to see the slides. Great class!
Come to brazil!!!! Please!!!!
Terrific.
Did anyone else notice the water bottles change or is it me?😂Great Lecture looking forward to more.Had to watch certain parts a few times to grasp them but thats usually a good indicator of new useful information 😅
