From the Archives: An anthropologist asks whether U.S. police are people serving the people—or are anonymous drones of state violence.
Shifting police practices have embrittled the relationship between cops and those they police.
In the unrest associated with Floyd’s killing, the defects of this policing model have come into bright relief. Police, dressed in dehumanizing riot gear and face shields, have kept their distance from protestors and have gathered like borgs who stand silently until instructed to unleash a tirade of tear gas, rubber bullets, and flash grenades against the protestors.
And yet the protestors’ call in demand of a response—the fundamental speech act of a democracy—continues.
And, zeroing in on black police in particular, they challenge them to declare whether their job as police officers has erased their kinship with fellow African Americans.from Washington, D.C., told the media that he has been surprised by how many people “have wanted to talk to us and are clearly looking for us to prove their worst fears about officers wrong. Even in a very dark hour for our profession, some people clearly want to believe in us.”.
That is our choice: cops with batons and face shields subduing people in the domestic “battlespace” or police officers accepting a hand from those they serve.
