How should young people deal with police stop-and-search procedures? "Y-Stop," a new film from UK youth organizations, tells them to remember the acronym SEARCH: Stay calm; Eye contact; Ask questions; Receipt/Record; Confidence; Hold to account. These six principles should be used by young people to take a more active role and put them on an equal footing during police stop-and-searches.
