DOJ Investigation Finds Systemic Racism in Minneapolis Police Department

The Department of Justice issued a report finding the Minneapolis Police Department engaged in unlawful conduct, discrimination, and mismanagement.
The report documented excessive use of force, disproportionate targeting of Black and Native American residents, and repression of protesters and journalists.
The report leaves Minneapolis reeling and reveals deep distrust between residents and police.
Rebuilding trust and reforming the police department will be a years-long process.
The findings shed light on broader issues of police misconduct and discrimination in American law enforcement.
