Expert Solution
Introduction

The minority community leaders in Los Angeles many times complained about the harassment and even use of excessive force against them and their LAPD officials. Operation Hammer began in 1984 in the Olympics that was held in Los Angeles. To suppress the aggression, Operation Hammer was a large-scale attempt to crack down on gang violence in Los Angeles. The police in the region frequently conducted mass arrests of African American youth and even this increased people complaints and aggression against the police and administration.
