Reviews
A comprehensive portrait of the centrality of race in some of the Court's most momentous decisions...We would do well to internalize the lessons of Justice Deferred as we consider the current attacks on Critical Race Theory (which isn't taught in K-12 schools, by the way) and Nikole Hannah-Jones' '1619 Project' as they attempt to shed light on the persistence of white supremacy in America. While it, too, may be demonized for its unflinching portrayal of our racialized legal history, Justice Deferred should be required reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the impact of race on American political, economic, and legal structures., A fluent, illuminating but dispiriting book...Ingeniously shows how widely the badge of servitude--the presumption that Blacks are unfit for equal rights and opportunities--has continued to haunt race relations., This comprehensive history demonstrates a hard truth in America: the highest court has most often been on the wrong side of racial justice. From the heartbreak of Dred Scott to the promise of Brown v. Board of Education to current efforts to roll back voting rights, Justice Deferred reminds us that the fight for justice requires our constant vigilance., At best, the US Supreme Court has a mixed record when it comes to issues of race and civil rights... Justice Deferred offers a needed refresher course for faded memories on the Supreme Court's unequal history with one of the key issues not only of our day, but one that has always been key in this country's development--one that still requires more work., Extremely important and timely...When it comes to SCOTUS's racial decisions, Burton and Derfner let the history speak for itself...It is hard to read this story...as anything other than a disappointing and dispiriting betrayal of African Americans, Native Americans, Asian immigrants, other minorities, and civil rights...Many of the stories and cases considered in Justice Deferred are utterly heart wrenching. Taken together, they are enough to make us question our trust in the Supreme Court., An important contribution...Burton and Derfner argue that most of the Supreme Court's accomplishments happened from the 1930s to the early 1970s. Before then, the court 'spent much of its history ignoring or suppressing those rights, and in the half century since the early 1970s the Court's record on civil rights has retreated far more than it advanced.' With clear and accessible prose, Burton and Derfner trace this disheartening story, which began during slavery and has not stopped., A comprehensive survey of the Supreme Court's role in the battle for racial equality. Analyzing more than 200 rulings, the authors make clear that the court has more often been an impediment to progress than an ally of it...Spanning American history from the colonial era to the present day, Burton and Derfner offer copious evidence that justices have been influenced by the politics of their respective eras...This meticulous deep dive into the court's mixed record on civil rights is a must-read for legal scholars., Show[s] with heartbreaking clarity how the Supreme Court has typically been more a foe than a friend to the pursuit of racial equality...[An] impressive work...Burton and Derfner's discussion of recent Supreme Court jurisprudence offers high levels of insight, and they provide reliable guidance on controversies involving affirmative action, capital punishment, regulation of police, and other vexing subjects., An extensive, thoughtful narrative charting the history and impact of race jurisprudence in the United States Supreme Court...Burton and Derfner exhaustively cover court cases and decisions from 1619 to the present (on issues ranging from Indigenous land rights to voting), explore how phrasing and word choice can uphold laws, and contextualize the relationship between these court decisions and ongoing racial discrimination in the U.S...Superb...It will benefit scholars and students, as well as readers interested in civil rights and legal history.

I have received my dvd but have not watched it yet. But upon inspection I do not see any scratches or blemishes that would make me think it would have issues playing. The seller shipped quickly and it was packed securely. Thank you!
