These Streets are Watching is a 50 minute video on police accountability in three communities; Denver, Cincinnati and Berkeley.

The video documents incidents of possible police brutality.

Independent filmmaker, Jacob Crawford, weaves three cities responses to police brutality into a single tale of community empowerment and direct action. The film conveys basic legal concepts that can provide practical help to groups and individuals seeking an understanding of their rights when dealing with police. The film is divided into sections that explain citizen's basic rights, tactics for documenting police activity and ideas for further action and organizing.
