To understand the present you have to look at the past. Between them, our four officers have clocked more than 100 years of police work. Their careers spanned from the 1980s to now; they worked through the protests following the police beating of Rodney King, the Black Lives Matter marches and the outpouring of grief and anger following the killing of Tyre Nichols in early 2023. In the final episode of the series, our officers reflect on their time in law enforcement and answer the ultimate, burning question: is it really, truly possible to be both Black and Blue?

As we leave Maplewood we speak to someone we haven’t heard from yet. Someone whose voice is rarely ever heard at all. Meet Tina, one of the vanishingly small number of Black women in American law enforcement. Her story will make us question why so few like her make it in the force and ultimately whether police work, for Black women, is really worth it.

Trying to figure out why Black people become police officers can be… confusing. What's even more confusing is why, after everything he’s been through, an officer like Michael Morrison would stay in the force. To find out, Seren Jones goes back to where it all started: Newark.
