Racial Lawsuit

Make them live by their rules, and use the courts to your advantage:

  • A 20-year veteran of the Chicago Police Department has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city, alleging that his race is listed as Caucasian in his personnel file, but he “currently identifies as Egyptian and African American.”

    Mohammad Yusuf, 43, claims that the department only offered Caucasian, Black, and Hispanic as race designations when he joined the force in 2004, so he chose “Caucasian.” But the department now allows incoming officers to choose from “over nine” different racial designations, the lawsuit says.

    The police department has a “blanket prohibition” against changing an officer’s race in its records. Yet, it allows officers to “have their gender identity corrected to match their lived experience,” Yusuf’s suit claims.

    Even after Yusuf presented the results of a “23 and Me” genetic test to prove his heritage, the department said it was “not possible” to let him select another ethnicity for his personnel file.

Back in the 90's, we recall an Officer we knew, paler than we ever were and he identified as "African American." His reason? He was born in or just outside of Pretoria, South Africa and emigrated here as a child, giving him far more credibility in that arena than other officers and families who had lived in Chicago for decades. While we and others had a laugh at the time, turns out he was far ahead of his time. 

Intentional or not, this Officer's lawsuit is sure to ruffle a lot of feathers.

note - we won't be naming our South African friend and any mentions of his name won't be published.

African American should not be a race. What about Africans that are not Americans? What race are they? I got some black citizen extremely upset once by calling him African-American. He told me not one part of him is African and he doesn't appreciate being called that. As far as changing it - I don't see why they don't allow it. As someone pointed out - if Jerome to Tamika is fine why isn't Caucasian to African-American? Unbelievable what it's come down to.

It’s brilliant, honestly. I don’t know this officer but I tip my cap at his ability to see the absurdity of this racial-politics system, and play it to his rightful advantage.
And as I was reading the story I was thinking that I can’t wait to see what kind of can of worms this unravels.

Alinsky’s playbook is alive and well.
Make them play by the letter of their own rules.

And it’s shining some light on some uncomfortable truths about “merit promotions” that some people may not want to talk about.

This officer comes from a family of HUGE police supporters. They owned a business in 015 for decades and were always generous to CPD. He’s been around coppers since he was a child and his family members have appeared as witnesses in court proceedings FOR CPD officers in the past. No doubt his upbringing helping run the store and interacting with the police in his formative years influenced his decision to come on the job. I first met him when he was in grammar school and was immediately impressed with what a good, smart kid his was. Same for his brother… they were mature beyond their years helping “Steve” run that store while excelling academically.

Best wishes, “unnamed officer”. Beat these bastards at their own game.

The fact that he is technically “mislabeled”, and being labeled as Caucasian makes it absolutely impossible to be made by “merit”- this should be interesting.

Why doesn’t the city just call it what it is?
Race-norming?
Reparations?
What it ISNT is “merit”.

Or are we to believe that caucasians are less inclined to do police work notable of being deemed worthy of promotion than other races? At a statistically impossible rate?
Why has this never been in question before?
Only certain races are capable of being promoted by merit, and it’s the worst kept secret in the department.

At this point we all have had it beaten into our heads that tests are racist, so the workaround is a charade they pretend is synonymous with good leadership and good police work.
Nevermind the links to fraternities/sororities, or family tree.
If an enterprising young reporter did the work up on “merit promotions” and the Greek system they would find statistical anomalies worth questioning that wiiid make some people squirm.

We had a supervisor who claimed he was Hispanic because his family lived in Argentina in the late '40's. He was white. His brother was on the job and claimed Caucasian. He basically denied an Hispanic a promotion. I always wondered just where the submarine left that took his family to Argentina.

The plaintiff is correct, the GOCR didn't list Arab races, and we were instructed to list them as "2" white.

I identify as a Caucasoid. However, in the summertime when I get a tan, I am darker than most of my coworkers who identify as AA. So, since so much is based upon the color of my skin, instead of the content of my character, should I use this to my advantage?

Or should my race be fluid? then I can identify as black in the summer, and white in the winter? If someone mislabels me, should I throw a hissyfit? Maybe I can claim to be triggered by being mislabeled and claim to be working in a hostile environment. Can I collect SSI for PTSD? Do we need another acronym alphabet soup (for race) to identify people like me?

Everyone seems to forget that there was a race box known as "Other" back in the day. They could have checked that one. But it didn't matter back in the days before race became an issue.

Guy was taken care of since he worked his cycles in 15 and then went to 25. He got a slice of the hook up when he made it to narcotics. Only reason he still has a job with CPD is BECAUSE if the relationship his dad had with the Police. It wasn't about being pro police it was about being a smart business man who's liquor store business was in one of the worst neighborhoods in Chicago... maje friends with the police so they come around all the time and respond faster when something comes out at that address.. smart man who understood the game. NOW FOR MO... he isn't any different or special then any other copper. His family built thier nest where MO can afford to pull this lawsuit our of his arus. Since he is near the end of his career and had nothing to lose from it. MO spent ZERO time in patrol and went to narcotics because of the relationship his dad made with police. Good for him filling the lawsuit BUT don't act like this kid was isn't on some BS doing so.

To the person that said “ funny but fuck him…” you’re not getting the point being made here. This officer wants to change his race code. Simple as that. If the city would’ve just looked at his 23 and me test result and seen that he indeed is not Caucasian, why not just allow the change? Also, why should he have to prove that he’s legitimately not Caucasian? If someone can wake up one morning and say they want to change their gender and city allows it without question then, why can’t he be allowed to change race code?

It is absolutely legitimate. Off. Yusuf is not asking to alter his race designation because he’s changed how he personally identifies. He has always known his family's Middle Eastern heritage. He is asking for his race to be corrected in his personnel file based on the results of a DNA test which was requested by the Chicago Police Department.

Aren't merit promotions supposed to be based on accomplishments? I know him and this officer has never worked an inside or administrative spot. He's been on joint task forces and has racked up more than 2700 arrests at the state and federal level helping to break up some of the most violent narcotics traffickers in Chicago. Those are the the things that are deserving of a merit promotion, not race, who you know and and a bunch of CR#s.

Well, the DNA would show that they're the opposite sex of what they proclaim to be, so that wouldn't help their argument. That's their whole thing, that they identify as the opposite sex, despite their DNA and sex organs. Maybe they could make them submit a brain scan to show that they're severely mentally ill and suffering from extreme delusions.

When the person responsible for prosecuting criminals chooses to refer to them as "those who want to commit crime," you just know they're not going to actually do their job. I'm actually surprised "want" was used. Surely they don't "want" to commit crime. They're forced to commit crime by the racist white people who keep holding them down or something. If I were a criminal in San Diego, I'd be offended.

The merit process doesn't need to be exposed. It was created for the sole purpose of promoting non-whites because too many white people were scoring well, while too many non-white people were scoring low. They'll straight up tell you that merit promotions are meant to "even the playing field" when it comes to race of promotees. There's a widespread belief that this is somehow fair and not racist against white people. No one tries to hide the true purpose of things like this and affirmative action, restorative justice, bail reform, etc. It's all nonsense based on imaginary "systemic racism," in order to excuse the poor performance and bad behavior of non-white people, while also preventing white people from having the same opportunities and protections. It's the real systemic racism, and it's all legitimized by the media and the Democrats in power. Racism against white people is just seen as acceptable and necessary to achieve "equality" or "equity." There are many people of all races, white included, who have the mistaken belief that you can't be racist against white people.

Yep, I agree fuck him he should have studied harder. He is probably the guy that talks shit about the merit process but will take it in a heartbeat. Also, he knew he was getting an advantage 20yrs ago by putting he is white, now he is not. I guarantee he will be in the next sergeants class and everything will be fine.

Who is going to be the first brave officer to change his gender to female and take advantage of the easier power test standards?

2/28/2024 12:12:00 AM

I don't know if he's still on the job, or where he works now, but there was a Hispanic officer in 009 who identified as female, despite his penis. He used the women's locker room and restrooms. I don't know if he ever asked for a urinal to be installed, but this was over 10 years ago, so it wouldn't be new if someone tried this shit today. I heard about another one that was in the academy back in 2017ish.

Right, because white people are not dumber than a box of rocks, white people get promoted by merit and are so dumb that they get the test with the answers so that they can study the test. It is all legit and white people are superior.

The definition of MERIT is: “character or conduct deserving reward, honor, or esteem”.

The city needs to STOP fucking calling these sham promotions “merit”.

They are race-norming, nothing more nothing less.
Call it what it is.
Mislabeling it is disrespectful to all parties involved.
It’s simply meant to strike the ego of the recipients of the promotion. So they can strut around telling everyone how much they deserve it because they have merit. lol

Just change the name to FREE HANDOUT.
You get the promotion, but you gotta admit to how you got it.
And if you don’t want to be exposed, then you can study harder.

Now that your career has amounted to nothing but writing paper on jobs you bash a real police officer that worked his ass off to get where he’s at. He didnt want this to happen. He simply wanted to change his race code. If you knew him at all on a personal or professional level you would eat your words and apologize.

sorry, had a little time and looked this up.

Hispanic comes from the Latin Hispanicus. (an adjective form of word hispania). It does not come from the combination of hispanic and phonic. That would be hispanophone.

Think micro-phone and tele-phone. None of those words rely on the ic part of phonic, but on the phone part. Same with hispanic.

Hispanic indeed does refer to the culture of Spain.

Adams v. City of Chicago, 135 F.3d 1150 (1998)
• In 1994, Although 46% of those who took the Chicago Police Sgt. Test were minorities, only 12% were later eligible for promotion
• 1993 Sgt’s test (administered in first 3 months of 1994). 3 parts, the third being oral. There was no meritorious whatsoever. 4,700 took parts I (31.8% were black, 10.8% were Hispanic, and 56.4% were white) and II, of which 1,900 went on to part III. But after all three parts were graded, about 88% of those designated to be promoted to sergeant were white and 12% were minority.

Oh wow, good for Yusuf. If there is anyone who will have the balls and courage to do this is Yusuf. I worked with him in 025 and he was a GREAT officer and people person. Ha, I never knew he was white.

Really? Ok cps graduate. Just because you are the “best” cop in your own little world and unable to learn some general orders doesn’t mean everyone who made it by score was connected or a house mouse.

I know some really smart bosses who know all the orders who tested well on both Sgt and LT exam but were the biggest dogs and laziest cops out there. You need a balance. Want to to gain the troops moral. Lead by example.

Back in the day Austin had unisex locker rooms. You got a locker where ever you could when you could. That changed after Richardson was made the commander (mid 90's) and wall dividers were build to separate male/female locker spaces.

If you've never seen connected and unqualified white people get promoted with phone calls you're an outsider. Black people didn't build the merit process in CPD nor the democratic machine in the city or Cook County. Call it what it is...a stand off between whites with phone calls and Blacks with phone calls. To those us off who don't have a phone call...I'm not interested in hearing side complain.

I've worked for a large number of bad bosses, who didn't know shit about actually doing the job, and were definitely promoted far beyond their intelligence and leadership abilities. The vast majority of those bosses were white. I'm painfully aware of and completely against the promoting of anyone via "merit" based on who they know. None of that changes the absolute fact that the merit process was created to increase the number of black officers being promoted, because they couldn't score high enough on their own. All races now benefit from the "merit" process, with blacks taking the highest percentage and whites the lowest, but that doesn't change the facts. I bet you think Superintendent Push-ups was the most qualified person to be promoted over and over, despite not seeing the street for 2 decades. Eliminate all merit and promote based on test scores. That's the fair way to do things. They'll never do it though, because they see it as racist. Whenever white people earn anything, it's seen as an unfair practice that black people need to get their share of. Sometimes things don't work out equally along racial lines, like crime statistics. All that being said, I acknowledge and applaud the fact that there are some very intelligent bosses of all races who earned and deserve the promotions they got. The best bosses I ever worked for were a mixture of black, white, Hispanic, and some whose race I didn't know. I never cared what race anyone was, as long as they were good at their job and treated everyone fairly. I believe the best person for the job should get the job, regardless of sex, race, age, sexual orientation, etc. That's somehow racist according to the department and you.

Walsetti changed his name and now is miraculously a Latino/Hispanic. He joined the appropriate ethnic police group, helps the organization and climbs the ladder via the inside track, as a Latino/Hispanic. Funny how he won't speak Spanish or interpret. Fake as a 3 dollar bill.

Let’s not kid anyone here , whites have scored well because they have been given the answers since the beginning of time. Get off your mighty white high horse. When blacks out scored the mighty whites , they cheated. See how that works

I Hope this officer WINS. Although the officer provided DNA results which was wrong to ask for from
The beginning especially since no one else has been asked for DNA or evidence before when joining or changing their sex or race. This case will open the door to all officers to change their race code to a minority race code especially if people can change their sex with no issue.

The selected race may not have been his choice.
The US State Dept standards assign Arabs, Semitic, North African Arabs, Italians, Spaniards, Greeks, Turks, Sephardic Jews and dot Indians as "White".
I hope he wins his suit.
This racist bullshit is all about special treatment for some people. There was a big shitstorm some years back when Seattle minority construction preferences went to majority Chinese companies.

That's a cute fantasy. I didn't get the answers and barely studied, but I was still able to be promoted by my test score. You won't believe that though, because common sense isn't racist enough to fit your warped set of beliefs. When exactly did blacks outscore the whites? I think you're taking a select few female blacks who were all recipients of black boss dick at the time, and pretending their scores somehow mean blacks outscored whites overall. That's not what happened, perpetual victim of racism. Sorry to burst your bubble. If you think Nakia Fenner, who believes Milwaukee is a state, and that the University of Chicago police are State Police, is smart enough to score that high without cheating, you're dumber than the numbers show. Keep on studying those special study guides and pretending you're smart.

As a black officer, I support this officer . This issue here is fair treatment. If this officer is black or not is beyond the point. If an individual can change their sex without evidence or even surgeries, but just on the basis of identification, then this officer and any officer should be able to change their race.

Allen v. City of Chicago, 351 F.3d 306 (2003).
• Pretty sure this is a suit over the Sgt’s test. Minorities sued for more merit. Plaintiff’s were those who took the 1998 Sgt’s exam, and were not selected for promotion based on merit. City won.
• There were 2 classes of minorities that sued here: group A were minorities who did not pass the written test (1998 Sgt. Test), and group B, who did pass the written test, and were thus eligible for merit, but nonetheless were not selected for merit promotion.
• The appellate court found that the Subclass B officers did not prove that increased merit promotions represented an equally valid and less discriminatory alternative, and the district court properly denied summary judgment to the officers. The Subclass A officers did not establish a genuine issue of material fact as to whether merit procedures alone represented an equally valid and less discriminatory alternative.
• BURDEN OF PROOF IN DISPARATE IMPACT CASES
o Complaining party must show disparate impact.
o Respondent must then show hiring practice (test) is job related (test is valid predictor of job performance).
o Complaining party then has the burden to show there exists an alternative test which is also valid but has less disparate racial impact that respondent fails to adopt.
• The court ruled that those who passed the written test (group B) failed to show that increased merit promotions was an equally valid promotion practice that displayed less disparate impact.

Majeske v. City of Chicago (2000).
• Chicago can promote police officers to the position of detective, using race as a factor. The court held that persuasive statistical data and anecdotal evidence adequately established past discrimination by defendant, and remedying such discrimination was a compelling governmental interest that justified defendant's affirmative action plan.
• Further, defendant's plan to accept promotion candidates based upon ranking within the separate racial and ethnic groups, and promoting some minority candidates based solely on the estimated number of minority promotions affected by past discrimination, was narrowly tailored to discriminate against plaintiffs as little as possible consistent with effective remediation.
• 1989 Det. Test
o 3392 took written, of which the city wanted 650 to take oral. Of the 650, there were not enough minorities, argued the city. Therefore the “races” were separated (white, black, Hispanic) and the top 17% of each race were selected to take oral. Cutoff scores then became: white (82), Hispanic (79), and black (73). 619 ended up taking oral.
o Breakdown:
 64 were to be promoted.
• 42 in rank order (does not say what race these were)
• 22 out of order (18 black, 4 hispanic)
• 26 merit (also not sure what race)
o P’s sued based on the “out of rank order” promotions
o FOP filed grievance.
o Arbitrator ruled the merit was OK, but “out of rank order” violated the collective bargaining agreement. City responded by promoting 37 more det. in rank order.
 So this is the new breakdown, I could be wrong though:
• 42 in rank order (does not say what race these were)
• 22 out of order (18 black, 4 hispanic)
• 26 merit (also not sure what race)
• 37 after arbitration (so, even though the arbitrator rejected the “out of rank order” promotions, the city promoted them anyway.)
127 TOTAL PROMOTED. (Of these, 90 were in rank order. So the 37 were added to this, which probably included the original 22 “out of rank order” and 15 merit. Just a guess).

Adams v. City of Chicago, 135 F.3d 1150 (1998)
• In 1994, Although 46% of those who took the Chicago Police Sgt. Test were minorities, only 12% were later eligible for promotion. P’s alleged disparate impact and a violation of Title VII.
• 1993 Sgt’s test (administered in first 3 months of 1994). 3 parts, the third being oral. There was no meritorious whatsoever. 4,700 took parts I (31.8% were black, 10.8% were Hispanic, and 56.4% were white) and II, of which 1,900 went on to part III. But after all three parts were graded, about 88% of those designated to be promoted to sergeant were white and 12% were minority.
• HOW MERIT CAME ABOUT.
• The plaintiffs filed an interlocutory appeal. However, during the pendency of this appeal, the City of Chicago initiated a Blue Ribbon Task Force to review the Department's promotion practices. By consent of the parties, argument on this appeal was delayed until the Task Force issued its report. In May 1997, the Task Force issued its report recommending that up to 30% of the Department's promotions to sergeant be made on the basis of "merit." This meant that current sergeants and lieutenants would pick 30% of the police officers that would be promoted to sergeant. However, the report also recommends that the current test continue to be used to assure that sergeants given "merit" promotions meet a minimum level of competence.

Oh wow good for him. I know a handful of officers who changed their race code. Maybe they denied him due to the color of his skin.
