With all the tension taking place across the country at the moment over police brutality and violence against law enforcement, The Game and his son are looking to help a cop in Arkansas that is working to improve relations between his department and the community he serves.
Officer Tommy Norman has become a favorite online because of his mission of working with local residents. His Facebook page states, “I’m a police officer in NLR Arkansas who’s committed to changing the world!”
Norman’s call for positive community policing struck a nerve with Game and his son Harlem. The Compton rapper explained his decision to help Harlem start a GoFundMe page for Officer Norman.
“I had conversations with my oldest son [Harlem] about good cops and bad ones and he did his research and found officer [Norman’s] page,” wrote Game on Instagram. “I was touched by how active he is in the black community where he polices.”
As of press time, the crowdsourcing effort has raised over $40,000. The Game has even given $1,000 to the cause. Funds can be donated to the “A Good Son For A Good Cop” campaign at GoFundMe.
