James Baldwin covered this a long time ago. He was the one who taught Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. nearly everything he knew. "Black policemen were another matter. We used to say, 'If you must call a policeman'- for we hardly ever did-'for God’s sake, try to make sure it’s a White one.' A Black policeman could completely demolish you. He knew far more about you than a White policeman could and you were without defenses before this Black brother in uniform whose entire reason for breathing seemed to be his hope to offer proof that, though he was Black, he was not Black like you." They see themselves as heroes and protectors of the peace against troublemakers in "the ghetto". Which leads to tragedies like Tyre Nichols, Manuel Teran and many more. Too many names, too many names... He's been saying some of the same things Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert were saying back in the 50s and 60s, using poetry and literature instead of comedy. Instead of looking at individuals, we really need to look at systems. It's been 70+ years. Nothing's changed. Trying to reform a system that refuses to change is a fool's errand. Abolish it.

I think its odd to have an entire art history class and not mention a single black artist. Also you said they have to prioritize certain information, but why prioritize an entire year to Texas history (from the white colonizer perspective). Also I was just giving a personal anecdote.

When we learn about manifest destiny do we get a rebuttal? Maybe from an indigenous perspective? No we don’t. And that is an implicit bias. And you saying imagine teaching a history of basketball and not mentioning M.J. furthers my point. If you think that an art history class which is supposed to cover world art history doesn’t have to mention one black artist than you must think that there are no black artists that are "giant" enough to be mentioned.

So sorry I missed the live session, Shawn. As one of the first four women hired as fully fledged, trained law enforcement in a major metropolitan department in 1975, just substitute "woman" throughout this interview. And yes, many female cops were very overly aggressive and violent, apparently trying to prove they were one of the boys, and to avoid the ridicule. I had hopes of rising to a position where I could make policy and procedure. When I applied for promotion to sergeant I was told by my university mentor that the biggest problem was that for me to rise to that position I would have to play coyote for years, giving every appearance of being "a company man" to get promoted. He feared it would kill my covert revolutionary spirit. But the administration had already figured me out. I was told that I was "not one of their people." I stayed 12 years. And then I "got well"...and moved on to better things. Thank you for your amazing work here. And thanks to Prof. Forman Jr for shining a light.

Much gratitude for this, brings to light so many factors that are at play simultaneously. Much as I agree with virtually everything said I have to say that, unlike Mr. Forman, I consider collective 'institutions' (and 'laws') to only have the power people continue to give them, they have no 'power' in themselves -- if enough people were to decide to 'de-fund' them by withdrawing their assent they would cease to exist (Frederick Douglass described this with eloquent simplicity). There is certainly danger and uncertainty in that dynamic and, unfortunately, human beings seem to be evolving out of the capacities that would be necessary to utilize such a possibility.

Racism in Britain… you know after America and the UK abolished slavery, your British ancestors spent 175 years policing the oceans for slave ships and returning them back to Africa. The UK and America are the two best places for black people to live and prosper, and that’s backed up by facts (look up family incomes in America and UK compared to other countries) All this basquiat stuff is BS (he’s French so of course he has horrible political ideas) and the whole “black people are victims” narrative needs to stop.

Very interesting & thought provoking. If you have a broken system, in this case a racist police force, then black cops will not dilute the racism as they want to "fit in" and not be seen as disloyal or not team players. Change can only happen from the outside, needing political will to impose change & to force through reform. Too often the required reform is portrayed as being "soft on crime" that will produce more criminality & criminals.

when I first heard of/saw this piece in high school from another student's presentation, I didn't get it. frankly, I still don't. I think it's an interesting topic, the way people can dutifully serve a system which in turn doesn't serve their best interests. however, that topic is presented plainly in the title; isn't it ironic when a black man works as a police officer? that's what the title says, but I never understood what the /piece/ was saying. it was a messy, chaotic depiction of a black man in a police uniform. the title says that's ironic, but how does this depiction represent that irony? the form is distorted, disjointed, like the situation is unnatural, but does that make it ironic? he appears to be standing motionless in a void. he isn't depicted as actively engaging in some form of oppression, actively doing anything against his own interests. he is simply existing as a police officer, and as a black man. what /about/ a black police officer is ironic, in of itself? what does this piece do, beyond rehash (and literally restate) its title? in what way is it deeper than its own premise? I also judged the piece more negatively (fairly or not) for being made during a drug trip, if I remember that presentation correctly. I felt that, while such a piece can still be very expressive, an altered state of mind doesn't produce the symbolism or layered metaphors I always find fascinating in art (though i've never been any good at discerning those myself.) so at the time, I had no trouble believing the piece itself lacked depth. nowadays, i'd prefer to think that's wrong, but still don't see how it is. in much the same way, this video dives into the topic of black people as conduits of systemic oppression, but barely references the work of art itself beyond using it as a jumping-off point, before discussing a book with plenty to say. even at the end, James admits that, while there are many respects in which a black police officer can be considered ironic (and some in which it isn't), he didn't claim to know what manner of irony Basquiat was actually trying to convey. in this case, the art literally didn't participate in the conversation. it all fits a bit too neatly into my stated preconceptions, and yet it doesn't sound like the takeaway this video intended.

I disagree on the last part. It appears to me that the irony resides in the factors explained by James Foreman Jr. If you don't understand the racist structure of the police force, you cannot see the irony in the figure of a black policeman. What makes the black policeman ironic is a communion of multifaceted elements and perspectives. Another commenter posted a wonderful example that wasn't touched in the video further up: (grossly simplified paraphrase) the desire to prove yourself as different and better than your peers, having internalized the beliefs of a racist society, thereby justifying those beliefs in an attempt to distinguish yourself. Foreman points out many reasons why some fought to allow black people to have a place in law enforcement, and how there ultimately may be some irony in that. Furthermore, I think the video does well to dwell on the final point that Foreman raises. Is there really any irony in a black person wanting to become a police officer? It's a matter of perspective on a topic that, no matter which side you look at it from, ultimately presents the same truth: police is racist. If you are a black police officer, you might find the desire to change the system from within. Or you might want to distinguish yourself from the other, 'bad' black people. If you are black, you might want a job. If you are a middleclass black person, you might want a buffer from systemic oppression. If you are a poor black person, you might hope in a less violent oppressor. If you are Basquiat, you find irony in that.

The police intend to subjugate all at the behest of the state.

Are there any good things you say about police officers in the interview? I've known two people who become police, part of the training is going to a Holocaust museum, and I genuinely think they want to make the world a safer place, as they experienced terrible situations where they wish a cop had been present. Just as racism has no color, crime doesn't either. It's as ironic as a self policing group who share a culture, as ironic as the shooter who was stopped by a man of his own race. Nicols is a tragedy, and the irony is that many others said the scorpion unit was useful in other situations. But no institution is perfect. It is unnecessarily violent and you're correct some people can't do it. One of my friends father is a detective and he was mentally destroyed seeing some of the cases that keep you up at night. I wanted to be a detective until I saw how stressful it was, and how I'd have to go up the ranks. This felt more like propaganda for a book than a dive into the art, and I don't know much more about the art but I know more about a book I'm not interested in. I hope this isn't a trend.
