I Have to Do It with Rashad Sharif
Rashad was a Senior Lead Officer, now a Reserve Officer for the Los Angeles Police Department. During his time at the LAPD, he’s gone undercover, worked during the 1992 Los Angeles Riots (or the Los Angeles Uprising), was named West Los Angeles Officer of the year in 2012, and worked in the Community Engagement Section which coordinates Days of Dialogue events.
