The Defense Secretary is consulting senior military commanders about what steps need to be taken to address racial inequality in the military and how to improve representation and opportunities for black service members, administration officials say
Although Esper and other top officials have served in various positions for years, they have been taken aback by some of the videos and messages posted by black service members in recent weeks, officials say. The problem, one official said, is simply,"How do we make the force better?"It is not yet clear, officials said, how Esper plans to make any meaningful changes and whether changes in policy are needed to deal with potential institutional bias.
As Esper tries to craft a way ahead, his challenge is how to navigate delicate territory between the White House -- which feels this may force them into policy changes Trump doesn't want -- and several members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and senior regional commanders, who have a sense of urgency about moving ahead.
