Asaf Rashid is a lawyer and community organizer, formerly of Ontario and New Brunswick, now living in Halifax.

Rashid has written about specific issues and cases surrounding defending the police on his blog. One particular piece, called “Disarming the police to save lives,” prompted CHMA’s Erica Butler to call up Rashid to get his perspective on the defunding movement and the issues surrounding it.
