Anthony Bouza talked about his book, Police Unbound: Corruption, Abuse, and Heroism by the Boys in Blue, published by Prometheus Books. The book is about the police system in America and lessons learned from his 36 years in the force. Mr. Bouza said there are many abuses in the police system today and suggests four ways to reform the system. The biggest problem is racism, which he said needs to be brought into the open and discussed more thoroughly. The author pointed out that one in every three black men is either on probation, on parole or in prison because the social conditions for blacks make drugs, alcohol and crime seem attractive. He took questions from members of the audience at the end of the program. close
