Ta-Nehesi Coates: ‘The Near Certainty of Anti-Police Violence’

Ta-Nehesi Coates writes for The Atlantic: “By ignoring illegitimate policing, America has also failed to address the danger this illegitimacy poses to those who must do the policing.”

This reminds me of when my father was kicked out of the Seventh-Day Adventist ministry in 1980, some people said that will turn me against the church.

Yeah, I thought, I’m now against the church. It became a self-fulfilling prophecy.

All the media commentary about illegitimate policing has set the stage for killing of police.
