POLICING IN BLACK & WHITE

By Jeffrey G. DeYoung and Timothy J. Bloch

With a country divided due to several officer involved shootings and aggressive arrest techniques, it is more important now than ever to educate yourself on law enforcement. Maybe as a member of Society, you're interested in law enforcement training, strategies Police use while on patrol, and/or why Police act and react the way they do. This book was written by two former law enforcement officers who try to answer those questions, and much more. The Authors used their experience, combined with their real life Police incidents, to put the reader in an Officer's shoes. Policing in Black & White is a tell-all, non-fiction book written for EVERYONE in an attempt to bring Police and Society closer together. This book is not full of hard-to-understand Police jargon, or terminology. Unfortunately, each Author was involved in separate, deadly shootings. Policing in Black & White describes, in detail, what occurred before, during, and after their shootings. Publishers were unable to find a book that provided an abundant amount of first-hand information, especially during a deadly force situation, until now. This book provides access to one of the Authors' video in which their entire shooting was recorded on their Police issued, body-worn, video camera. This element really allows the reader to be taken through a deadly force incident, step-by-step, like never done before. Many citizens have questions on how to act, or possibly avoid negative confrontations with law enforcement. Also, Society has questions about why deadly force is necessary, and when it should and could be avoided. The Authors use their own opinions and experiences to provide insight of Officer involved shootings, and address valid and/or questionable tactics.Learn the typical day of a patrol officer. The Authors use both serious and comedic events to help the reader understand policing. Even hear the Authors describe what it feels like to be tazed or pepper- sprayed.The Authors want to see America work together to address and solve crime in this country. Bloch and Deyoung truly believe if Police can educate Society, and Society works to educate Police, we can unify and decrease crime and fatalities throughout the social spectrum, black or white, rich or poor.T.J. Bloch and J.G. Deyoung leave it all on the table, the good and bad they witnessed during their careers as Cops on both sides of the law. We are all after the same goal, but we need to work together to reach it.
