THE BLUES--FOR BLACK OFFICERS, DIVERSITY HAS ITS LIMITS -- "After a generation of diversifying its ranks, America's largest police department has undergone unmistakable change....But the department's efforts have failed in one crucial respect. For all the recruiting campaigns, the millions of dollars spent, the pledges by police commissioners and mayors to make the department reflect the city it polices, the advances have largely excluded black men." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article relays that, despite the push for racial diversity, the advancement opportunities for black policemen in New York are limited. THE BLUES--ALIENATION IS A PARTNER FOR BLACK OFFICERS -- "Speaking from an accumulation of personal experiences, a wide variety of black officers and detectives say the department has struggled with integration in part because of bungled recruiting efforts, an insincere commitment and promotion rules that leave few black men at the top." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article relays that the greatest problems that black New York City police officers encounter are internal. THE BLUES--FROM COURT ORDER TO REALITY: A DIVERSE BOSTON POLICE FORCE -- The Boston police department has, "achieved one of law enforcement's more elusive goals: a force in which the proportion of blacks in uniform approximates the proportion of black residents in the city" (NEW YORK TIMES). This article recognizes the Boston police department as a paradigm in creating racial equality in its force.
