Matthew Horace, a dedicated officer at the federal, state, and local levels for a remarkable 28 years, served in every state across the country. However, it was during his seventh year of service that he experienced a profound awakening to the pervasive racism within America's police departments. Through his powerful reporting, in-depth research, and intimate interviews with police and government officials nationwide, Horace offers an insider's perspective on police tactics. He argues that this archaic system, rooted in toxic brotherhood, has detrimental consequences for the communities it serves. Horace delves into some of the most high-profile police shootings and communities that have been at the forefront of the Black Lives Matter movement and beyond. He sheds light on how these systems and tactics have perpetuated violence and harmed individuals. Furthermore, he provides fresh analysis on communities grappling with high killing and imprisonment rates due to racist policing, such as Ferguson, New Orleans, Baltimore, and Chicago. Drawing from a law enforcement perspective, Horace uncovers the underlying factors that have contributed to the seeds of violence in these areas.
In his timely and thought-provoking book, The Black and The Blue, Horace sheds light on the unseen realities behind the blue line. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the complex dynamics between law enforcement and communities of color and to work towards a more just and equitable society.
