Charles Adams is the head coach of the North Minneapolis Community High School football team and director of team security for the Minnesota Twins. In 2016, his North High Polars became the first Minneapolis public school to win a state championship since 1976, with Adams becoming the state's first Black coach to achieve the honor. Adams spent twenty years with the Minneapolis Police Department, retiring after Minneapolis Public Schools ended its contract with MPD and eliminated Adams's position as a school resource officer. His story has been featured on HBO's Real Sports, in the New York Times, on National Public Radio, and in Showtime's four-part miniseries, Boys in Blue. He lives just north of Minneapolis.
