Assignment Scenario:
Officers in your squad are a great bunch, but there are a couple that have a habit of telling racist jokes. You have ignored them up to this point because you don’t want to stand out and no one else seems to care, but they joke in front of citizens and you are afraid someone is going to file a complaint. One night you and your partner are eating dinner with these two and they start joking about the African American waitress, using derogatory language.
They are loud and you are afraid that she or others in the diner are going to hear them. What should you do? What do you think will happen if you speak up?
Consider the scenario below explaining what you should do, and what do you think will happen if you speak up?
