lice officers, as well as female officers. And it’s clear that this country will never pay the repara- tions to the Black community your forefathers promised us - so look at this as a cheaper alterna- tive to fund the reconstruction of a functional black community. Also passing these first five de- mands into laws would be a very wise business investment for every city government in this country to mitigate financial losses. New York City paid over a half a billion dollars in police brutality/misconduct lawsuits in a two-year pe- riod (2017 and 2018) - and other major cities in the country are not far behind New York. An All- Black police force in these predominately black neighborhoods would remove the racial element in most of these cases, which tend to increase the jury-based damage awards in these types of set- tlements. For Black people who are about to say this


sounds like “separate-but-equal,”and Whites whose feelings just got hurt because this sounds like black people are saying they “don’t need us anymore” - you’re both wrong. The black commu- nity is not asking for all black mailmen, all black teachers, all black firefighters, doctors, etc. We are demanding that only the White government workers that are issued a gun and badge, and have been given the legal authority to use deadly force on us based on their own discretion - be re- moved from our neighborhoods. And we are also demanding the right to request that a Black offi- cer transport us to the police station - no matter where we are arrested. These are the same ac- commodations given to women in most US mu- nicipalities when a body search is required by male officers. Furthermore, Black Americans have absolutely no problem creating an alliance with like-minded persons in the White commu- nity. But we can simply no longer trust that we will be treated fairly in White police officer/Black citizen interactions - or that we will even live through the process in the country’s current state. Each of my many White friends have already told me at different times in their own words, that they are totally supportive of sweeping legislative changes for police officers like in demands six and seven. I just want each of you to remember this get-tough-talk when that police officer is a


close friend or family member. In the meantime, the good, honest White officers will probably wel- come the break from the Black communities. But I’ll have to warn the White communities about these controlling, racist White cops that you’ll be getting back in your neighborhoods. They usually also hate woman, minorities of all kinds, Jews, mixed-race couples and babies, the entire LGBT community, Muslims, and people who speak Eng- lish with a different accent than theirs. So, watch what you wish for. The eighth and final demand could have


the most impactful long-term change in the way Blacks are perceived as citizens by all Americans, and the rest of the world. This would mean the end of TV shows like COPS and the recently can- celled Live PD. And the banning of producing any further TV shows, movies, music videos, song lyrics, online content, commercials, etc. - that use minority criminal activity for entertainment. I have maximum confidence that the creative tal- ent we have in our Black and Brown communities will find a way to express themselves artistically and get their message across under these new re- strictions. And lastly, there have recently been a lot of


great ideas on how to solve the race issue in this country from individual Americans of all cultural communities, and by many organizations. Most of them will be needed to develop comprehensive legislation to start the overall rebuilding of the black community. But some of them are very dif- ficult to measure their success and have grandiose long-term goals. Ideas like sensitivity training, cultural awareness training, other man- dates that require racist people to change their deeply entrenched beliefs and behavior towards Black people - are difficult to implement and measure. Sensitivity training is for the vast majority


of the US White population that simply make cul- turally-insensitive statements, show cultural bias, and dismiss/avoid racial prejudice issues. These acts are made by white people not knowing they’re being offensive to their Black friends and family members. These rehabilitation methods have not shown to be effective on people who’ve been brainwashed with decades of hardened
