“And yet the water is still above my head” I felt chills all over when West said this in response to “You stand on our shoulders”. This is powerful yet so painful. I am where I am today because of the sacrifices that were made by the ones before me. And yet I still need to fight for every single step I take forward.
I know what that meant. I live in FLorida and work in law enforcement. I met and worked with the first African American police officers hired in the 1960s. They were pioneers. They were only assigned to black neighborhoods. Their arrest powers were limited to arresting black people. If they saw a white person commit a crime they could only detain and had to call a white officer to make the arrest. When they got hired, many white racist cops quit the job cause they didn’t want to work with them. The city opened up the black police precinct to keep them away from white officers. So yeah the water was deep and it’s still above their heads.
@@psychalogy Shut up. Just shut up. I'm tired tired of hearing this as if POC don't work 2x harder to prove we have what it takes and to succeed. Yet we keep going 20 steps backwards y'all saying the same shit to diminish your guilt over what minorities go through. Just shut up
If I'm remembering correctly. Stanton is a veteran of the force. I agree that Bradford would dust him. But I think he'd hold his own for at least a few seconds.
Tim’s a army vet yes but Stanton was a prison guard for a long time they go through a lot of close combat training so depending on where the fight happens he might have the edge
Jackson speaking truth to Grey was such a satisfying argument. “And yet the water is still above my head. So tell me sir, what were all your sacrifices for”. Damn that hit me hard.
As another black man, it hit like a ton of bricks. Yes Sgt Grey and Commander West probably did have to endure a great deal to get to where they are in their respective careers. What was it all for when guys like Stanton get a pass for being racist cops.The fact that a hard ass like Bradford sees it says a lot.
It really does thier speaking black man to black man. Bottom line is Stanton is a stone cold racist. Grey shouldn’t sacrifice that’s for racist. Bradford knows right from wrong

@@KingYuma_ Well, the story can extend beyond our protagonists' place of work; he could always go home, begin a lawsuit and eventually commence a killing spree like Christopher Dorner.

2:15 is the most important line in this scene. Good cops know who the bad cops are. They cover for the bad cops or turn a blind eye to what's going on, which in turn, makes good cops bad cops as well. Culture is the most powerful element in any social system and the culture inside policing is the biggest problem. You can not legislate culture away and no code of conduct can properly influence it. It is protected by the highest ranking officer down to officers on patrol. Until this is truly understood there is no fixing policing.
It's easy to say others should start a revolution but if the good cop didn't turn a blind eye, the system would get him fired/killed and he'd lose everything he has. Systemic change can't start with 1 person.
@@johnbrodude1309 Or they kill off Sgt. Grey and Bradford replaces him. Grey should be retiring but looks like he's staying to make a change judging by the last scene. We'll see tho
Two thumbs up to the writing and Titus Makin(Jackson West) performance in this scene, it was awesome watching him challenge the Blue Wall of Silence, and I also liked it when Bradford steps in to support him.
cause Jackson's report would of been buried since he's only a rookie & it would of been seen as a rookie having issues w/ his TO (his word against Sutton's). Bradford backed him up because it was the only way to get Grey to actually do something & to get IA involved. but the risk is that unless Sutton is charged both Jackson & Bradford are going to go down
@@Gabriella_Bonini He did. He said he was heavily affected by what happened in 2020 with the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor murders and was dissatisfied portraying a black cop on television without situations like that actually being addressed in the show. The showrunner convinced him to stay by saying they would insert storylines addressing the issue of police brutality this season (which they have with the Stanton storyline).
I got goosebumps when he said the waters still above my head. But I for a second felt that he should just take the win of his TO getting benched. But then I thought, its actually quite strong of him to not back down because it really isn’t enough.
@@abigailarmendariz7661 Did you by any of the episodes of Season 6 and 7 of Chicago PD, where Kevin had to deal with a Gung Ho cop named Tommy Doyle? And you'll look at certain parallels with Jackson and Doug to Kevin and Doyle.
Hank, Kevin & other members(current and former members) of the team are not only typical hypocrites but they're also wolves in sheep's clothing. To be more specific they're dirty cops.
@@goldenvulture6818 They're more of the vigilante cops, and yeah they'll cross lines if need be, but Denny Woods was a dirty cop. He jammed up someone, Black like him, for 17 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. So like I said before, Hank, Kevin, Jay, Hailey, Kim, Adam, and former member members (Erin, Al and Antonio) may cross lines, but they're not dirty.
To go along with that, it makes me so mad that Stanton is constantly being racist towards Jackson in a subtle way, such as commenting on his education and his way of life...
It probably would be best if he didn't. A big part of Jackson's storyline is him trying to establish himself as a cop completely independently and out of his father's shadow. Using the threat of Jackson being the son of the director of internal affairs against a veteran officer like Stanton would be damaging to his character's credibility as a cop.
I think Jackson's Dad had something to do with Stanton being assigned his T.O. Remember when his Dad asked him about going to internal affairs? His dad said I will ask you next week
@@dstacyify Not if public or news agency knows Jackson use his father power to remove Stanton, he and his father will lost their position no matter bad is Stanton.
@@avab.2794 He's played a villain by the name of Daniel Shaw in the show Chuck, Todd Ingram in Scott Pilgrim, and voiced a villain by the name of the Everywhere Man in The Batman

@allisoncastle lol, no, im serious. It was a small town, so everyone knew everyone. We graduated from Buena High School in Sierra Vista AZ. He would perform at the talent shows our school had. He was also in theater arts. Our parents were in the Military.
1:41, what Grey says about what he and West’s father put up with, with 25 years on the force, that would mean they both joined in the 1990s between Rodney King, OJ, and Rampart……yeah they joined at a bad time period and put up with a lot.
Ngl with how they were building the arrest scene I thought Jackson was about to pull his gun on Stanton lol could’ve been an interesting turn for show purposes but I’d assume since the show tries to stay closeish to proper cop work nothing good would come from it for his character lol From this whole exchange though I did really like how they made him go at Bradford as well because silence is complicity is a good message for everyone nowadays.
This is a TV show but this issue is common and real. It's not only a racist thing either. So many cops develop a control complex. (The dare you to dispute anything I say right or wrong because I'm a cop.) I worked with guys like that before. There are good cops, maybe one day the good ones won't loose there jobs for outing the bad ones.
The Rookie TV Show totally changed after George Floyd's Murder...Sargent Bradford use to the cop on the "Edge", but he 100% changed and apologized for his attitude/actions.
The Blue wall of silence is atrocious. When it’s plain to see people are innocent and I’m speaking no doubt 100% impossible they are suspect and get treated like animals and excessive force is used on them, it’s saddening.
I hate how sergeant told them before if they felt someone was bad after Armstrong they should go to him and yet when they do, this is what the treatment they get. No wonder Nolan and Harper went behind everyone’s back.
THIS IS REAL... the fact that cops do these things in real life is scary. I don't wanna be anything affiliated with a cop because I don't wanna end up on the wrong side of things trying to take down racists and violent people. I mean a whole department can stage my death and I wouldn't even see it coming... plus that would be the only job I qualified for as I'm also a veteran and this country doesn't like hiring war vets
Bro I swear I don’t understand how Stanton got to be where he was. Everyone in that office could hardly stand him and knew what type of person he was yet like West said here they just allowed it to go on. If it wasn’t for Jackson being there Stanton prolly would’ve killed a whole family for a false accusation, remember he pulled an actual gun on them for trying to defend their innocent son who is terrified cause he was just minding his business and got tackled and getting cuffed without any explanation of why. Then Stanton angry and either too stubborn or crazy to admit he was in the wrong got mad when they try to make things right with the family talking about “these people don’t respect the law” like bro fr believed that badge give him a free pass to hurt or arrest whoever. See and thing is there’s actually officers like this irl and that scares me that at any moment me or my little brother or any of my family would get profiled like that and a cop like Stanton would get a slap on the wrist for it while our family is traumatized and appalled that something like that happened to us.
Jackson is probably the last person who should be talking about silence when this is the same dude that froze twice on the job and the other cops brushed it off and covered up for him.
It’s honestly disturbing how hard people like Sgt Grey will defend bad cops. I don’t get why he immediately dismiss everything Jackson was saying. And saying “a lot of cops think that way” like that makes it okay??? Obviously I know this is just a show but this exact thing happens a lot.
most times shows pick actors/actresses that are so popular because it throws the viewers out of their comfort zone. watching someone who is well known to be tolerant being someone so out of character drives the root of the situation home that anyone can be this way
@@awesomechannel9342 Chen already had a different TO back in season 1. the main difference between them all is that Bradford was the only one out of the 3 original TOs who refused to transfer & he'd returned when he didn't have too. plus, all 3 of the rookies default to him when ever they get in trouble/need help. nolen issues w/ harper; west issues w/ sutton & chen issues w/ wrigley. i get the feeling that he's getting set up to replace grey as the Sarge at wilshire & that grey is either going to be killed off or retire. but i'm leaning torward him dying due to the storyline w/ sutton.
@@hannahyoung6762 I hope your are wrong, because a new Sergeant wound't take a Watch Commanders position, typically Watch Commander is a Lieutenant position. I Grey think coud get promoted to Lt. especially after Cpt. Anderson was already killed. Maybe Bradford will get a Sgt. Postion at mid wilshire or he get transferred out of the Division maybe even to the Police Academy.
@@paulkleinert959 nah. by the simple fact that they set up Bradford's promotion & then delay it? plus the way Grey stated that Bradford was the top selection for promotion/position. i could see them giving him the TO SGT position due to his history as a TO. plus Grey said he was going to retire after the last set of rookies which is when Bradford said he was going to accept the promotion to SGT.
The gospel by which we're SAVED. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)(1) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL (good news) which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; (2) By which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain (self).

Glad he decided to say something
Aren’t humans all the same? Just because you have more time than someone doesn’t mean that you’re always right
Grey knew Jackson was right
This is an on going problem that needs to be addressed, he needs to fired and I would've sued the police for discrimination
l love ❤️ the rookie
This is a TV show but this issue is common and real. It's not only a racist thing either. So many cops develop a control complex. (The dare you to dispute anything I say right or wrong because I'm a cop.) I worked with guys like that before. There are good cops, maybe one day the good ones won't loose there jobs for outing the bad ones.
Was the actor who played the Srgt. The same one who was Jill Scott abusive husband in Why Did I Get Married?
I actually teared up when I watched this
Wat season is this?
Nice to see West getting some balls. Love his character development. he was such a wuss before. He's turning into a straight up Alpha.
The Rookie TV Show totally changed after George Floyd's Murder...Sargent Bradford use to the cop on the "Edge", but he 100% changed and apologized for his attitude/actions.
The Blue wall of silence is atrocious. When it’s plain to see people are innocent and I’m speaking no doubt 100% impossible they are suspect and get treated like animals and excessive force is used on them, it’s saddening.
Love how their making the show more about everyday life
This shit was so powerful to me and made me physically feel things
1:50-1:59 WHEWWWWWW WEEEEEEE
Universal/Ideal/Perfect equality exists in only three places: The brain, the heart & death
It irks me every time they call them a T.O. every department I've known its always F.T.O. if it was anything else you'd get called an idiot
This is my 3rd little clip of this show and I’m intrigued. I will definitely be catching up. These issues must be addressed.
He has a damn good point
Bradford is my favourite character on the show.
What the movie called
So correct in so many ways.
I hate how sergeant told them before if they felt someone was bad after Armstrong they should go to him and yet when they do, this is what the treatment they get. No wonder Nolan and Harper went behind everyone’s back.
I'm waiting this new season in France 🤞😁👍
I'm still waiting for this to be put in UK

Wow, I take back all I said about Bradford.
What season and episode is this?
What season & episode this is from?
Anybody know What episode this is?
THIS IS REAL... the fact that cops do these things in real life is scary. I don't wanna be anything affiliated with a cop because I don't wanna end up on the wrong side of things trying to take down racists and violent people. I mean a whole department can stage my death and I wouldn't even see it coming... plus that would be the only job I qualified for as I'm also a veteran and this country doesn't like hiring war vets
Can someone tell me what season and episode this is?
Season 3, the Doug Stanton saga covers like the first half of the season.
That little brother Stand for justice ⚖️😅 and humanity way to explain how every police officer should be acting towards the civilian..
What season and episode
Bro I swear I don’t understand how Stanton got to be where he was. Everyone in that office could hardly stand him and knew what type of person he was yet like West said here they just allowed it to go on. If it wasn’t for Jackson being there Stanton prolly would’ve killed a whole family for a false accusation, remember he pulled an actual gun on them for trying to defend their innocent son who is terrified cause he was just minding his business and got tackled and getting cuffed without any explanation of why. Then Stanton angry and either too stubborn or crazy to admit he was in the wrong got mad when they try to make things right with the family talking about “these people don’t respect the law” like bro fr believed that badge give him a free pass to hurt or arrest whoever. See and thing is there’s actually officers like this irl and that scares me that at any moment me or my little brother or any of my family would get profiled like that and a cop like Stanton would get a slap on the wrist for it while our family is traumatized and appalled that something like that happened to us.
What episode is this
when is season 3 of the rookie going on now tv in the uk
Excuse me son.
You heard me
What the name of this movie
Jackson is probably the last person who should be talking about silence when this is the same dude that froze twice on the job and the other cops brushed it off and covered up for him.
It’s honestly disturbing how hard people like Sgt Grey will defend bad cops. I don’t get why he immediately dismiss everything Jackson was saying. And saying “a lot of cops think that way” like that makes it okay???
Obviously I know this is just a show but this exact thing happens a lot.
really people you get a veteran actor to playon the show and you give his character this just frustrated with this
He isn’t a real veteran.
most times shows pick actors/actresses that are so popular because it throws the viewers out of their comfort zone. watching someone who is well known to be tolerant being someone so out of character drives the root of the situation home that anyone can be this way
What show is this?
The Rookie
That awkward moment when you find out Stanton WAS Superman.
Movie name pls
What episode tht is
Stanton is my favourite character
God I am glad I have never seen this preachy ass show and thanks to this clip I never will.
What the song at 2:35?
2 years late 😅 but the song is called come back home by yes you are
What’s the series called en
The rookie
Why does West always seem like he's about to cry ?
Ill never forget he made angela drive up that mountain! 😂
Is this new or am I missing out on t.v
First Nolan and his new TO and now West and his new T.O.
Next could be Chen
@@awesomechannel9342 Chen already had a different TO back in season 1. the main difference between them all is that Bradford was the only one out of the 3 original TOs who refused to transfer & he'd returned when he didn't have too. plus, all 3 of the rookies default to him when ever they get in trouble/need help. nolen issues w/ harper; west issues w/ sutton & chen issues w/ wrigley.
i get the feeling that he's getting set up to replace grey as the Sarge at wilshire & that grey is either going to be killed off or retire. but i'm leaning torward him dying due to the storyline w/ sutton.
@@hannahyoung6762 I hope your are wrong, because a new Sergeant wound't take a Watch Commanders position, typically Watch Commander is a Lieutenant position. I Grey think coud get promoted to Lt. especially after Cpt. Anderson was already killed. Maybe Bradford will get a Sgt. Postion at mid wilshire or he get transferred out of the Division maybe even to the Police Academy.
@@paulkleinert959 nah. by the simple fact that they set up Bradford's promotion & then delay it? plus the way Grey stated that Bradford was the top selection for promotion/position. i could see them giving him the TO SGT position due to his history as a TO. plus Grey said he was going to retire after the last set of rookies which is when Bradford said he was going to accept the promotion to SGT.
@@hannahyoung6762 Bradford as TO SGT could be funny.
Gery won't retire. Hear my words
does anyone know why they kell west?
The gospel by which we're SAVED. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)(1) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL (good news) which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; (2) By which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain (self). (3) For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that CHRIST DIED for our SINS according to the scriptures; (4) And that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE AGAIN the THIRD DAY according to the scriptures.
READ, UNDERSTAND, BELIEVE (from the heart by FAITH) and be SAVED
I heard this might be the last season of this show
movie name please
It's not a movie, and it's called the rookie :)
