Abstract
|
:
|
Darnell M. Hunt goes beyond the obvious explanations of celebrity, scandal and voyeurism to ask why America was so obsessed with the O.J. case, why so many people were interested in particular outcomes, and to examine the implications for race relations in the United States as the new century dawns.
