Publisher's Synopsis
Though this book is a case study about a police man who challenged police corruption and was framed by the internal affairs division of his department. It also draws attention to the external false narratives of fairness, trust, accountability, respect, and transparency that major institutions articulate and the internal consensual programming that black people participate in by design and by default which contributes to the repetitive systemic conditions that control their daily lives.The author uses the police and courts as two crucial institutions that replica a plantation system designed to control blacks. Leaving the plantation is a metaphor emphasizing the importance of blacks discarding the slave mindset so that their future does not look like their past. Hint: In order to break the cycle, blacks should stop finding ways to go to jail, so more resources could be used for education parity which will prepare them to compete on a global scale. This book is not aimed at bashing the police nor does it support black crime over getting a black education. Leaving the plantation mindset applies to the police as well as black and brown citizens.
