A police union in New York called the Sergeants Benevolent Association says in a new video that officers are often victims of “blue racism.”
“The average person doesn’t see the things that make me human,” a narrator says. “When they look at me, they see blue.”
The video describes a “strange form of racism” that is growing across the country, and points to the number of police officers who die while on duty. The video says that “blue racism” is “even more racist” than judging a person based on their skin color.
