Detroit Police chief James Craig said on Monday that it was “reckless and disgusting” for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) to say that policing in the United States is “inherently & intentionally racist.”
In an appearance on CNN, the police chief was asked about Tlaib’s fiery tweet, in which she claimed that the recent police-involved shooting of Duane Wright “wasn’t an accident” and that “policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist.”
