A report into systemic racism at the London Police Service paints a picture of officers who treat non-White people in a domineering and rude way, often stereotyping communities and using excessive force while dismissing victims' suffering.A report into systemic racism at the London Police Service paints a picture of officers who treat non-White people in a domineering and rude way, often stereotyping communities and using excessive force while dismissing victims' suffering.
London police chief Thai Truong says he's open to how systemic racism will be dealt with at the organization. Several Indigenous Londoners said their medicines were treated disrespectfully during searches and that officers didn't listen to their explanations about the sacred items. Black, Indigenous and officers of colour said they believed they had limited career development and growth opportunities.
"They think that we're lowering our standards for diverse individuals and females getting hired and that simply isn't true," Truong said. "The same goes for promotions. If you look at the senior leadership ranks alone, among inspectors and superintendents, we have one diverse senior officer ."
