In Richmond, Calif., a city long equated with high rates of crime and poverty, the local police have taken steps in recent years to improve relations with the communities they serve. Highlighting those efforts, Richmond Chief of Police Chris Magnus turned out at a recent local rally against police brutality.

He was interviewed by Richmond Pulse editor Malcolm Marshall.
