Diop Kamau
Diop Kamau (born Don Jackson; March 16, 1958) is an American civil rights activist, founder and executive director of Policeabuse.com founded in 1994, investigates and works to resolve instances of police misconduct, neglect, or abuse.
==Career==
Kamau is a former decorated Police Sergeant Detective with the Hawthorne, California Police Department〔(Zoom.info summary of Diop Kamau )〕 who resolved to go undercover and expose racism and brutality by some police officers after his 65-year-old father (a Sheriff's Deputy) was pulled over and brutalized by police in 1988, with police claiming they had mistaken him for a 25-year-old robbery suspect.〔(Policeabuse.com biography of Diop Kamau )〕
Today, Kamau and his organization work to address instances of police misconduct regardless of whether racism is involved. The organization is not anti-police and makes a point of commending "good cops", and offering online instruction programs for instructors of law enforcement officers. The Police Complaint Center continues to expand operations, including via the PoliceAbuse.com Radio〔http://www.PoliceAbuse.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=726〕 program and the InmateAbuse.tv〔http://www.inmateabuse.tv〕 program for investigating complaints of prisoner abuse. The Police Complaint Center works with various public and private organizations sharing its Civil Rights / Law Enforcement agenda, such as the United States Department of Justice. On April 15, 2009, Kamau and the Police Complaint Center cooperated with West Hartford, Connecticut police to peacefully resolve a standoff between the city's S.W.A.T. team and an agitated suspect. In its own report of the incident, The Police Complaint Center commends the Hartford Connecticut police:
Alternately, the Police Complaint Center publishes online a description of The Dirty Dozen, a short list of police officials which the organization claims have especially violated the public trust. The epithet is reference to a 1967 anti-Nazi World War II film The Dirty Dozen.
