The Fraternal Order of Police is a racist organization that seeks to shield their members from accountability, stop all reforms to America’s racist criminal legal system and protect the pocketbooks of its membership.
The crime and violence in poor Black and brown communities are the direct result of slavery, Jim Crow and modern-day racist institutions.
We denounce racist policing and discriminatory incarceration practices, which are the wrong (and obviously racist) responses to crime and violence. We demand investment in Black and brown communities.
