Event Description: Joe Domanick is associate director of the Center on Media, Crime and Justice at John Jay College. An award-winning investigative journalist, Joe is the author of three previous books: Faking it in America (1989), To Protect and Serve (1995), and Cruel Justice (2004). He lives in Los Angeles.
Beginning with the 1992 LA riots and continuing through episodes like the Rampart scandal—that saw LAPD officers involved in drug dealing, bank robbery, and rumors of involvement with the murder of Biggie Smalls—Blue charts the LAPD’s long road to reform.
Through an in-depth look at the tenures of LAPD chiefs from Daryl Gates to current NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton, Blue presents a deep and nuanced exploration of the question gripping the nation today: what does good policing look like? |
