Black Police Chief Fired For Reforming Racist Charlottesville Department
Newly hired police chief RaShall Brackney found widespread racism in the police department she was hired to oversee and reform, but not long after she got to work, she was threatened and fired. Dr. Rashad Richey and Sharon Reed discuss on Indisputable. Tell us what you think in the comments below.

"After a midsummer meeting in June 2021, newly hired police chief RaShall Brackney felt the need to double down on her personal safety, unholstering her gun as she left headquarters. Brackney’s fear however was not prompted by the activity on the streets, or even the ongoing public threats made against the police department over the years. Instead, she found herself afraid of her own subordinates, cops who wanted her gone after making some controversial, yet necessary shake ups throughout the force.
That same year, an internal probe was being conducted of the 15 member SWAT team. According to a report obtained by The Washington Post, there were more than just a few issues that required addressing. There was evidence of several officers making racist remarks. One text in particular read that they should “take out” the command staff. And while Brackney found this concerning, most others on staff blew the comment off. The report additionally found an officer training a new hire on how to hide misconduct."

Sho Jo/ Your absolutely correct, when you stand up for what's right and against wrongdoing,, you stand alone. I know that story way to well. Our country is now build on Racsim, Corruption and entitlement of the powerful and their Buddy System. Prime example is the Senate and the Congress. This is one reason there is so much unrest. Extreme, Racsim, Supremacist ideology is spreading like wildfire in America as we know it today.

Facts.
As a black man teaching in Austria, birthplace of Adolf Hitler, I find myself too often faced with the question by white people over here, asking wtf is wrong with white people back in my homeland - I can only respond "Evil, just evil..."
So basically the chief tried to clean up the police department and the department rejected it. Makes sense. The police don't want to change.
They are sick. They’ve always been sick.
For evil to exist good people have to do nothing. I borrowed that phrase it's not my original but I 100% believe it. A police chief who decides they want to clean up whatever dirt that's in their Department should be given support.

Imagine that !!!! She got fired instead of getting a promotion for the amazing thing that she did !!!! What a fucked up and unjust world we live in !!!! 😡😡😡😡😡
This is outrageous ! I hope she gets all the money she is suing for ! ! 🤬
Street justice is the only way to deal with these racists!🤬
She was hired to cover for the racist, not reform them. I guess they forgot to tell her during the hiring process.
The officers were leaving, because they couldn't do what they had been doing; she took all the fun out of being a cop for them.
They're most definitely RACIST and I'm glad she's suing because it's most definitely discrimination, wrongful termination, mental distress and a hostile work environment.
That's crazy she should sue the city
this is what happens when you speak out against police wrong doing, you are made out to be the bad guy. she realized that racism was pervasive in that racist department and the command staff decided to retaliate against her by tell lies, use deceptions and exaggerations along with sarcasms and anything they could find to confuse the truth. this is standard procedure right out of the police department's unofficial handbook and they use it all the time. this is what 28 plus years in law enforcement taught me....... live and learn black people

This woman was fired for doing her job.. you see they wanted her to do her job but then they didn't want her to do her job...
What a sad reality. Criminals get to fire the one upstanding employee that would’ve made a difference, and they get to keep being thugs.
We can understand when immature children behave in this manner, but here we are supposed to be dealing with adults, but their actions say otherwise.
They thought she was just gonna be a "token negro". Boy were they wrong! I support this sista!
They were never going to let her succeed.

This just means the city did not want to change the culture of policing in the city. They just felt like hiring a black person; they thought that would show the policing was not prejudice!
Her mistake was not going to the people of Charlottesville directly. She was obviously hired to give the appearance of being fair by those with no intention of being so.
Why are these departments investigating themselves? It's crazy!

They fired the city manager too who was black in Charlottesville.

They want the "Appearance" of change. Without actual change.
The appropriate response is to dig into the mayor's closet n find a reason to fire him. It shdnt be too hard: he is a politician.
They were finally moving in the right direction and now they done fell chile 3 steps back. For them to text that they should “take out” the command staff and teach how to hide misconduct that’s a PD that needs to be taken out themselves. Light em up.
There was never any intention to have her fix anything. This police chief may have discovered some other realities and they felt threatened by her.

But its more than just the police reform that's needed. Its the entire criminal "justice" system. The police are just a single element (the pawns) in that big corrupt system.
The *first* step is admitting you have a problem... if admission is also your *last* and *only* step, you still have a problem.
So they fired someone for doing the right thing. It sounds about right
This is typical police departments all over America.
Sue tf outta them sister
Well, now we know where we stand, and the FBI should investigate the whole deparment.
I hope she wins her case
They only wanted a puppet!
That is true... They almost never get fired ever.. no matter the wrong they participate in or allow they give them that dignity to step down... Smh it's in black and white that we still live in black and white
Cockroaches hate light 🕯️
She didn't understand the assignment. She was supposed to be a figurehead to disguise the racism, not actually take action to change things.
Time to investigate who is in charge of hiring cops.
Retired fire here.. ... I know 1st hand...these bastards are evil...
IMPOSSIBLE task! You can't change the NATURE of a DEVIL!

I’m starting to think so to. Because they had one of the most horrific racial display in recent history. They bring someone in to change that an they give her no support. Then fire her while murderers are on the force. A threat is a threat is a threat. If I said we need to take out cops online. That is a threat just like his. SMH they don’t want change they want

Racism will never end on its own, We as Black People, need to start our own Police department Legally
For people used to privilege, equality feels like discrimination
What I'm hearing is a federal investigation needed
The same happened to the white female police chief of the slime balled Aurora PD in Colorado. She was doing an excellent job of building accountability that was lacking for years in that crooked department. Typical crooked good ole boys clubs.
If she wins that 10 million she should buy the lot and put up a 20 foot statue of herself right in front of the police station
This is what happens to those that won't play the game the way they're instructed to play. True sister
She was affecting their "bottom line" in a negative way. The city was not bringing in enough money from aggressive ticketing and arrest, because she tried to reform their abusive way of policing. Policing for profit.

She needs to sue for unlawful termination.
She needs to run for sheriff because they can start investigating the police department all over again.
How can we trust them if they are unwilling to try? We will never trust them until there is change
Shame on the mayor, he should be fired
I'm gonna say it again. Take the $10 Million out of their pension fund.
When will the city folks understand that this type of nonsense affects their Taxes? The individuals don't pay the price but the people living in that city. What a shame?
It uncalled for it wrong to fire her police needs to be reformed and end bias in the police departments in all.levels
They don't want to correct racists Police Officers and their departments. They need to bring in these quota convictions by *"Any Means Necessary."*
They were not interested in cleaning up the good ole boys club. You have clean out that whole police department and start anew
I'd get fired as a police chief, too. I'd make my officers wear body cameras that they couldn't turn off or mute and live streamed for oversight.

Taking orders from an accomplished black woman is a bridge too far some. I suppose coming face to face with their limitations is really hard.
I live in Charlottesville. I am not surprised. I was at City Hall today and could feel that evil energy.

“… won’t be tolerated “ ? Something I learned years ago: not certain of someone’s intentions? Watch their feet.
Whenever you hear a company or governmental institution talk about addressing racial diversity in the work place, it's standard procedures to hire a Black person, but it's not to do anything about it, it's to give the illusion of addressing the issue. When that person is in the position, their expected to go along, to get along and if that person doesn't go along, their fired because they were incompetent, they love to use that on Black people, incompetent, I pray she wins!!!
they work for the public and they should all be fired.
I am not surprised by this at all, they don't want things to change. Sounds like what happened in kenly North Carolina to an extent. The fire fighters are going to get a slap on the wrist
DEFUND, start over!!!!!
Makes sense to me why she was fired.The foundation of the police was based off of patrolling the movements of slaves,she got a taste of no your role and stay in your lane.
