Description

In 2006, an ambitious group of writers published The Covenant with Black America, a blueprint for Blacks to achieve the American dream. InsideThe Covenantis a disturbing sectiontitled Fostering Accountable Community-Oriented Policing. This section is supposed to educate Blacks on how to deal with Law Enforcement and understand Police operations. Sadly, The Covenant misses the mark and only offers inflammatory and misleading information that will only lead to more distrust between citizens and Law Enforcement. Black and Blue brings out the broad sword of truth and offers all citizens a frank and honest look at modern policing in America and what they can do to build a better relationship with their Law Enforcement agencies. Using actual police cases and incidents, Black and Blue boldly explains all aspects of police work as well as the thought process of the officers that patrol your communities.
