The times have changed but many of the struggles are the same when it comes to Americas racial, social, economic job opportunity, education, law enforcement and political issues of the day.As a black law enforcement professional, I've seen the good and bad side of people living in thriving conditions and left behind communities like Dayton, Ohio. I know the impact policing can make to improve lives or destroy lives in communities, especially communities of color. I developed the desire to become a police officer as a youth growing up in the Jim Crow south where I experienced the negative impacts of bad policing along with bad policies, and common laws, all enabling systemic racism to deny people living in communities of color equal opportunities and equal justice in America.My journey from Georgia to Dayton, Ohio where I became a dedicated law officer in the Dayton Police Department, an educator and pastor over a 30 plus year career was not an easy one. Like most Blacks who decided to work in law enforcement I had to overcome many obstacles including racial biases, bigotry, unfair policies, and a lack of trust of citizens and the police to achieve many firsts as a low enforcement officer. My strong faith in God, the early teachings of my parents, and a strong desire to help others formed the foundation of success in my career and my life's journey. But it was my determination, education, help from others, and life changing experiences that helped me navigate my career and achieve my goal of helping people who live in all communities within Dayton, Ohio.I hope my new book, The Reasons For A Successful Career - In Law Enforcement & Life, will provide you with a few insights and key bible passages I've used to overcome life's obstacles and bridge the growing racial, social and law enforcement divides we're experiencing in Dayton and across our nation today.
