It’s time for an “honest reckoning” when it comes to racism in the military, says Richard Brookshire of the Black Veterans Project.

Half of minority service members report witnessing racism among fellow troops.

New Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, the first African American to serve in the role, has acknowledged racism in the armed forces. In one of his first acts as SEC DEF, Austin issued a "stand down" order across the military to address extremism in its ranks.

A necessary first step, according to Brookshire but more needs to be done.
