Sumario:The writer applauds the radical agenda on race pursued by Sir Ian Blair, the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police in London, England, who has announced his determination to eradicate white racism from the force. Blair's efforts include opening up the recruiting process to permit the fast-tracking of black and Asian men and women, dealing forthrightly with officers who direct racial epithets at coworkers and members of the public, and reforming disciplinary procedures to make it easier to eliminate the racists.
