We must work together to expose the obvious double standards in the area of discipline, recruitment, pay grade advancement, promotions, selections to coveted positions and selections to specialized units. These are just a few of the areas in which African American employees have experienced double standards on the LAPD. We must not forget about the other areas less likely to be detected because of the way they are crafted behind the scene. OJB promotes and advocates the best interest for African American employees on the Department. We cannot achieve our full potential, in the battle to promote fairness and equality for our members, without the full support of our membership. Every minority group of employees has an organization
representing their interest, we as African American employees will
continue to be left out of the main stream, unless we fully recognize
the value of unity. |
While
racial insensitivity continues to be the primary barrier affecting
African American employees on this Department, it is not the only
issue confronting us at this time.
