Matthew Horace was a law enforcement officer at the federal and local levels for twenty-eight years, working in every state in the country. Horace presents a insider's examination of America's police culture and policies, dissecting some of the nation's most highly publicized police shootings. He provides fresh analysis of issues that drive disproportionate numbers of black men to be killed by police in cities such as Ferguson, Baltimore, Cleveland, New York, Tulsa and Chicago. As a champion of wholesale police reform, Horace shines a light on inadequate training, reward and promotion issues, lack of community engagement, and mismatched expectations between what police officers see as their jobs and what the communities see as the police officer's responsibility.
