TRUTH HAS NO COLOR:
One Peace Officer's Perspective on Racism, Policing, and America's Abundance of Bias
Black Lives Matter. Blue Lives Matter.
In 21st-century America, these aren’t just activist organizations or slogans on protest signs, but concepts that divide us along racial and political lines while disregarding the basic fact that both are absolutely true.
As Burke County, Georgia’s first Black sheriff and a thirty-year veteran of law enforcement, Alfonzo Williams sees the issues from both perspectives, choosing not to view high-profile cases of alleged police misconduct or brutality as Black or Blue but simply as Right or Wrong.
In his fourth book, Truth Has No Color: One Peace Officer's Perspective on Racism, Policing, and America's Abundance of Bias, Sheriff Williams looks at the history of racism and policing, the psychology of bias, and offers his take on a dozen of America’s most famous crimes—from Rodney King to OJ, from Ferguson to Floyd, and from Rayshard Brooks to the riots at the Capitol—choosing not ideological “sides” but the truth.
