Law and documentary film may seem far apart, but they actually share many connections.

EDITORIAL
Police reform: A roadmap for the future
The job of healing old wounds, creating more diverse police forces, and advancing 21st century law enforcement is just beginning.
EDITORIAL
Massachusetts sheriffs shouldn’t be enforcing federal immigration laws
A new lawsuit challenges the role of county authorities in immigration enforcement. But it’s the legislature that should ensure that sheriffs do not act as federal ICE agents.
Reneé Graham
‘It’s not safe in the world . . . if you’re a trans person’
Violence against trans and gender nonconforming people is an ongoing battle between truth and hate.
