Why the Police Should be Trained by Black People aligns scholarly and community efforts to address how Black people are policed. It combines traditional models commonly taught in policing courses, with new approaches to teaching and training about law enforcement in the U.S. all from the Black lens.

Black law enforcement professionals (seasoned and retired), scholars, community members, victims, and others make up the contributors to this training textbook written from the lens of the Black experience. Each chapter describes policing based on the experience of being Black in the US, with concern about the life and life chances for Black people. With five sections readers will be able to:






Describe the history and theory of law enforcement, policing, and society in Black communities



Critically address how law enforcement and the nature of police work intertwine with race-based societal and governmental norms and within law enforcement administration and management



Understand the variation in pedagogy, recruitment, selection, and training that has impacted the experience of police officers, including Black police officers, and Black people in the US



Explore the role of law enforcement as crime control and crime prevention agents as it relates to policing in Black communities and for Black people



Address issues related to race and use of force, misconduct, the law, ethics/values



Assess research, contemporary issues, and the future of law enforcement and policing, especially related to policing of Black people.

Why the Police Should be Trained by Black People brings pedagogical and scholarly responsibility for policing in Black communities to life, revealing that police involved violence, community violence, and relative lived experiences do not exist in a vacuum. Written with students in mind, it is essential reading for those enrolled in policing courses including criminology, criminal justice, sociology, or social work, as well as those undertaking police academy and in-service police training.
