Left Bank Books
Join us for a reading group discussion of Rise of the warrior cop by Radley Balko. Purchase the book at Left Bank Books for 20% off through October 31.
What is #FergusonReads?
In Rise of the warrior cop, Balko shows how politicians' ill-considered policies and relentless declarations of war against vague enemies like crime, drugs, and terror have blurred the distinction between cop and soldier. His fascinating, frightening narrative shows how over a generation, a creeping battlefield mentality has isolated and alienated American police officers and put them on a collision course with the values of a free society.
