It explores racial bias expressed against and by African-American males seeking high office. In these campaigns, the convergence of racial uplift and multicultural democracy manifests in mandates against blackness represented as criminality and political incivility. Historically, US anti-black anima forged tropes of ‘criminality’ and ‘incivility’ that demonized blacks as unsuitable for full citizenship. Today, the new black candidates successfully deflect these tropes, in part, by redeploying them against non-elites, and anti-racist discourse and activism.Item Cradle to Grave: Texas "Disproportionality" from Foster Care to Death Row(2009-01-01) James, JoyItem Delta Dandi: I Am My Mother(2009) Bridgforth, SharonItem Delta Dandi: The Veil(2009) Bridgforth, SharonItem Doings and Undoings(2002) Engel, TonyaItem Entombment(2009) Clark, NormaItem Freedom Weekend(2009-02) Al-Nur, Kaleema HaideraItem Gospel Poems(John L.
