Community Perceptions of Police Capacity and Police Legitimacy in Seattle: Are They Connected?
Police legitimacy is of ongoing concern for police agencies in their interactions with the public. Police legitimacy is impacted by a range of factors. After the murder of George Floyd and the subsequent protests calling for systemic changes in policing, police legitimacy ratings declined in the United States. In the city of Seattle, police legitimacy ratings declined dramatically coinciding with an historical decrease in police staffing leading to a staffing crisis. The current study aims to investigate how community perceptions of police capacity in Seattle impact community perceptions of police legitimacy at citywide, precinct and neighborhood levels. Quantitative and qualitative data drawn from the 2024 Seattle Public Safety Survey. Results explore the differences in the citywide, precinct and neighborhood level. The data revealed that police capacity and police legitimacy are correlated with specific findings suggesting that the correlation is stronger in some precinct and neighborhoods t. Implications for police-community engagement in Seattle and other cities with attention to the relationship between police capacity and police legitimacy will be discussed

Gold Fever
Using the medium of historical fiction and grounded heavily in research of the historical setting, this creative work explores the economic hardship faced by Seattle in the late 1890s and the extreme impact the Klondike Gold Rush had on the city and its workers. The story illustrates the political, social, and economic factors that allowed the gold rush to capture the spirit of Seattle so fully, as well as showing the extent to which it transformed the city. The story of Tom is simply one imagined example of a very common experience in Seattle at that time. Economically desperate people viewed the Gold Rush as a way out, many leaving for the Klondike with no understanding of the dangers they would face and returning with very little or returning not at all
