The book examines race and racism in American daily life and policing, including incidents of mistreatment and death in custody.
Chapter headings cover separation and segregation, and police in the fight for equal rights.
The overview says the book explores what police departments and communities are doing to improve communication and relationships.
The subject includes racism, discrimination in law enforcement, mistreatment and deaths in police custody, and fear. A reader may want space to pause or talk through these topics.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
