Introduction.

Chapter five seeks to explain the law enforcement process and how law enforcement officers apply it mainly to minority groups. This topic has been aggressively brought up in several situations, especially by the target groups, which are blacks and other minor races in the United States. This chapter also exposes the police brutality on small races and the law enforcement officers undoing’s to uphold and follow the law with its strict conformity. In the review of this chapter, I will also discuss some case studies and how the people from the minor races were mishandled and lacuna in the law.

General information in Chapter Five.

This chapter addresses the plight of the minority groups and the pride of the police offices. The section reveals several encounters between blacks and police officers. These encounters general have not been better experiences that one will look forward to encountering as they offer the worst experiences. I mean, what would be worse than death, injury, and degradation of human dignity? The chapter also asks pertinent questions regarding the treatment of Africans by the police and gives explicit experiences for young blacks as well as aspiring police officers.

Why I recommend you to read Chapter Five.

To begin with, chapter five is resourceful to giving personal views with the people who have directly and indirectly experienced police brutality. The own experiences help to equip us better to handle such scenarios when we find ourselves in such situations. I think as well; such examples make us understand the perspective thinking from the police’s point of view and why they melt such force and suspicion to the minor groups. This chapter explores several cases that one thinks the law enforcement officers used unnecessary excessive force on the black. For instance, Cassie, a 21-year-old, her cousin was shot just because they were fighting. The police, in this case, used excessive force, it’s pretty standard for young adults to altercate and even have a fight. The police should have separated and advised or give a warning instead of robbing someone’s life. The blacks also are ill-treated in the streets even by minor mistakes that the police shouldn’t involve themselves in. I would suggest that it is unnecessary for someone to call the cops on young blacks waling on the street just because they think they may have drugs. The way the police react when they see and when arrest blacks are as well dehumanizing as the constitution clearly states how and on which circumstances an individual can be arrested. The law enforcement officers break this protocol when dealing with blacks. Therefore, I would agree that such scenarios help blacks with resourceful experience on how they can handle such cases.

Secondly, it gives us a resource to use so that the police brutality can be checked and speak against it. Social media has been so useful to reach people worldwide with whatever message you want to pass. Through these, we can get masses that will be willing to protest against such vices and condemn the brutality melted on the minor groups. For instance, from chapter five, we get some people who used social media, and in turn, they helped check the police brutality.

Furthermore, the police bias and degradation of the "good force" gives prospective police officers how better to handle situations. Most African American people think that the police are an excellent department. Although, outright impunity by the men and women in uniform have slowly but surely brought down the right name of the department. The racist target of African American, even for the minors, is unwarranted. With this knowledge, any prospective police officer will make better and informed decisions. Much more information can be accessed by reading chapter five.

Moreover, the most exciting fact about chapter five gives reasons as to why the minor groups refer to the police as the gang. The cops always defend one another in an instance that they have broken the law. The police also attack in combat. All these characteristics resemble those of the gangs; they seek to protect their own. Also, their manner of communication in combat it is signs that they are the only ones who understand. This chapter is exciting; therefore, I recommend that it should be read as you seek to understand the thinking of both police and the minor group on their views about police brutality.

On the more negative note, the chapter also introduces us to the psychological suffering of the blacks. The section notes many instances of the blacks being killed without reason and especially when they do not retaliate. Those who have witnessed the police brutality and psychologically affected and one question is there anything the government is doing to stop such attacks and help the individuals’ post-police cruelty.

The Target Audience.

This chapter can be read by blacks, law enforcement officers, and educational researchers. It provides useful information to these groups. For instance, it has statistics necessary for educational researches to explain a given phenomenon in their papers.

The chapter can be read in a single sitting as its information is straightforward, and it is written in about forty pages, from page 97 to 139.

Conclusion.

This chapter reveals the evils and the shortcomings of the police; it uses a softer language to denounce police brutality. I would suggest that you read this chapter to get information that you may require for knowledge’s sake and other endeavors in academics. The info helps us to reflect on many helpful issues.
