In 1944 five black men became the City of Miami’s’ first black patrolmen. They were denied the rights that were given to their white counterparts. One of those rights was to join the local PBA. It was with courage and tenacity that those very men decided to make history. They founded the Miami Colored Police Benevolent Association (MCPBA) in 1946. The MCPBAs’ goals included relief of the poor, advancement of education, the erection of public buildings and monuments, lessening the burdens of government and neighborhood tensions, eliminating prejudice and discrimination, defense of human rights, combating community deterioration and juvenile delinquency.
