Law enforcement officers confront issues of race daily. Bayley, Davis, and Davis (2015) purported police officers in the United States confront issues of race in much of what they do. Police officers confront race in the geographic distribution of criminality and the fear of crime as well as in assumptions about what criminals look like. Police officers confront race in the suspicion and hostility of many young African American men they encounter on the street, in complaints from ethnic communities about being either over- or under-policed, race in charges of racial profiling and unequal justice, and in decisions about hiring, promoting and assigning police officers. Inescapably for today's police agencies, race remains an American dilemma (Bayley et al., 2015).Carter and Radelet (1999) suggested the importance of maintaining a racially balanced police department promotes multicultural understandings, relationships, and trust between the community and police, which supports the concept of community oriented policing. The current study examined the underrepresentation of minorities and women in law enforcement. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study is to explore lived experiences and perceived barriers of minority and women police officers regarding underrepresentation in municipal police departments. The participants concurred; a number of barriers impede the recruitment of minority and female officers municipal law enforcement. This study revealed the following barriers contributing to a low number of minorities and women in law enforcement: low diversity, recruitment, negative perceptions, and unfair or impartial treatment.
