The Gallup Podcast

Gallup’s 2024 Global Safety Report finds that people’s trust in their local police is one of the keys to their overall perceptions of safety. In the U.S., police were the only institution that saw an increase in public confidence in 2024. But racial gaps on this measure persist -- and research from the Gallup Center on Black Voices provides greater context to Black Americans’ relationship with the police. This week’s guests include:Lydia Saad, Gallup director of U.S. Social ResearchCamille Lloyd, director of the Gallup Center on Black VoicesDr. Rashawn Ray, senior fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings InstitutionJulie Ray, Gallup managing editor for World NewsBenedict Vigers, Gallup senior global news writer
