Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper presents a first-of-its-kind evaluation of the contributing factors to diffuse support for the U.S. Supreme Court among Native Americans. Despite the Court's profound impact on the lives of Native Americans, scholars have largely overlooked the state of diffuse support for the high court among this understudied population. Building off of the long-established judicial legitimacy literature and recent additions examining the dynamics of diffuse support, the paper uses original survey data to demonstrate that Native Americans' views toward the Court are influenced by a confluence of political, racial, and demographic concerns. These findings indicate that Native Americans' diffuse support for the Court reflects long-established understandings of the Supreme Court's legitimacy and dynamics unique to racial minorities.
