Longlisted for the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Nonfiction
Matthew Horace was an officer at the federal, state, and local
level for 28 years working in every state in the country. Yet it
was after seven years of service when Horace found himself
face-down on the ground with a gun pointed at his head by a white
fellow officer, that he fully understood the racism seething within
America's police departments. Using gut-wrenching reportage,
on-the-ground research, and personal accounts garnered by
interviews with police and government officials around the country,
Horace presents an insider's examination of police tactics, which
he concludes is an "archaic system" built on "toxic brotherhood."
Horace dissects some of the nation's most highly publicized police
shootings and communities highlighted in the Black Lives Matter
movement and beyond to explain how these systems and tactics have
had detrimental outcomes to the people they serve. Horace provides
fresh analysis on communities experiencing the high killing and
imprisonment rates due to racist policing such as Ferguson, New
Orleans, Baltimore, and Chicago from a law enforcement point of
view and uncovers what has sown the seeds of violence. Timely and
provocative, The Black and The Blue sheds light on what truly goes
on behind the blue line.
