Policing has drastically evolved over the years, but training has been slow to follow. We must adapt for the myriad of calls from people that need mental health support.

In 2000, the San Antonio police department started an effort to provide crucial mental health resources, support and training, diverting people away from a crowded jail system and into impactful treatment programs.

From Academic Video Online and FILM PLATFORM, the award-winning documentary “Ernie & Joe: Crisis Cops” takes you on a ride-along with two key members of this mental health team as they work to provide the necessary support. Partners Ernie and Joe focus on the person, not the call, for their community and at the same time train their fellow officers on tactics to calm situations, differentiating each 911 call from another at the human level.

“It seems that I am too much an American.” – Benjamin Franklin

“I woke last night shaking from a frightful dream. We have come to the edge of the ocean and there is no advancing or retreating. My own sons may sink in the torrent. I wish I pray that there be some decent honorable way to put an end to this conflict. To be once again reconciled with old friends. Our cause is righteous and I have no doubt of final success. But I see our generation and perhaps our whole land drowned in blood.” – Sarah Scott

Typically, students see the American Revolution as an organized rebellion of a united people against an oppressive tyrannical government. In their estimation, the colonies simply rose up and gained their independence.

The truth was far from that. Although many colonists felt they deserved the equal rights and liberties of those in the mother country, they were not ready or willing to totally break away from the British Empire and start a new nation. They were "reluctant revolutionaries" who believed they were being denied basic rights and freedoms, but were not ready to take the “big step.”

The first in a 6-part Liberty series from and PBS, “The Reluctant Revolutionaries, 1763-1774” examines why the colonists, many of whom felt strong loyalties to the British Empire, decided to abandon their mother country and join the Revolution.

Professors: Use in your American History classes to teach students about the American Revolution, colonialism and imperialism, the Stamp and Declaratory Acts, the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party, and the role Benjamin Franklin and others played. The words spoken by the actors in this film are taken from letters, diaries and documents of the time.

In 1763, the capitol city of America is London, George Washington is lobbying for a post in the British army, and no one thinks of Boston harbor when they hear talk of tea parties.
