In his recently released book, Bill Bratton (2021) shares, “There comes a moment at any given police department when it becomes clear that implicit bias training is necessary” (379 – 380). He shares that the NYPD contracted with Fair and Impartial Policing (FIP) to train all 36,000 sworn personnel—explaining that “no one among us is without bias” (379).
FIP is proud that Commissioner Bratton’s new book, The Profession, devotes virtually the entirety of chapter 11 (entitled “Implicit Bias”) to describing FIP’s implicit-bias training and trainers, and the audience response. “Seventeen years on the job and this is probably the best thing I have had.” Or “I was forced to go to this training. I did not want to go. I thought this would be awful… This is actually pretty good” (398).
