Publisher's Synopsis

This third edition includes new material on the Clinton Administration, the controversial 2000 and 2004 presidential elections and what they revealed about new methods of black disfranchisement, and the disaster that Hurricane Katrina wrought on New Orleans and the lessons it taught about the persistence of race and class discrimination in the United States. A final chapter describes the rise to power of Barack Obama and the achievement of black political legitimacy.
