Share and speak up for justice, law & order... In roll calls and squad rooms across the country, law enforcement supervisors struggle to address the perception of a widening gulf between police and the community. Like no other time in recent memory, the need for engaged police sergeants is evident, and it is critical they rise to the challenge by refocusing the guardians under their command toward time-tested, fundamental strategies. Sergeants, now is the time to step up and stand as a bulwark against the mounting wave of negative rhetoric. As you should know, despite the din of angry voices, this effort is not hopeless. As the woman or man in that squad room who in crisis past has been the voice of calm, reason and direction, this day and these challenges are no different.
