Nowhere is this legitimacy deficit more apparent than in a portion of the African American community in the United States, as incidents of police killing black suspects - whether legally justified or not - have become almost routine. Regrettably, this legitimacy deficit has largely been documented through anecdotal evidence and a steady drumbeat of journalistic reports, not rigorous scientific research. This book offers an all-inclusive account of how and why African Americans differ in their willingness to ascribe legitimacy to legal institutions, as well as in their willingness to accept the policy decisions those institutions promulgate" -- $c Back cover. 610 10 $a United States. $b Supreme Court. 610 17 $a United States. $b Supreme Court. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00529481 650 0 $a Discrimination in justice administration $z United States. 650 0 $a Race discrimination $x Law and legislation $z United States. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Civil rights. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 650 7 $a African Americans $x Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799575 650 7 $a Discrimination in justice administration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895100 650 7 $a Race discrimination $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086474 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Nelson, Michael J. $c (Writer of Blacks and blue), $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018023858.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D2F0B04462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
