This study applies Du Bois’ ‘double consciousness’ theory to explore the experiences of Black police officers. The research reveals that these officers’ interactions with unarmed Black civilians are influenced by their implicit identification with the Black community and their awareness of ongoing racial inequality in the U.S. However, internalized racism also leads to shooting errors, with officers viewing Black civilians through harmful racial stereotypes. The study, which involved 43 Black officers from various departments in the deep South, utilized a simulation game to assess decision-making under time pressure.
Abstract
This study applies Du Bois’ ‘double consciousness’ theory to explore the experiences of Black police officers.

The study, which involved 43 Black officers from various departments in the deep South, utilized a simulation game to assess decision-making under time pressure.
