BBC World Service - Newshour, Does US policing need an overhaul?

A judge in Denver has ordered police to stop using non-lethal force on protesters.

A federal judge in the American city of Denver has ordered police to stop the use of tear gas, plastic bullets and other non-lethal force on peaceful protesters. We discuss the relationship between prosecutors and police in the USA and how it can change.

Also in the programme: The National Football League in the US has said players should be allowed to protest against racial discrimination - a dramatic reversal of policy. And, thousands of Australians have attended rallies across the country in support of the Black Lives Matter campaign.
