Rashida Tlaib tells police chief to only use black facial recognition analysts

Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib left Detroit’s police chief outraged and insulted after a tour of his department’s new video surveillance facility — by telling him he should only hire black employees to be facial recognition analysts, a report said.

“I think non-African Americans think African Americans all look the same,” the freshman congresswoman told the city’s top cop, James Craig, during a tour of the department’s Public Safety Headquarters, the Detroit News reported.

“Analysts need to be African American, not people that are not,” she insisted during the tour, which was open to the press and which left several officials outraged.
