The research included in this volume examines the competing
pressures felt by black women as political agents in the domains of
elections, public policy, and social activism. Their challenges and
initiatives are explored in public spaces, institutional
behaviours, and public policy. The volume features cutting-edge
research exploring black women's political engagement. The first
group of contributors interrogates the treatment of black women
within the discipline of political science. The second group
examines the relationship between cultural politics and
policymaking. The third and final group outlines the politics of
race-gendered identity and black feminist practice. Black Women in
Politics includes chapters on black leadership, radical versus
moderate politics in New Orleans, and the Shelby vs. Holder Supreme
Court decision. The editors introduce a new series highlighting
trends in black politics. Finally, the work notes the passing of
William (Nick) Nelson and Hanes Walton, Jr., prominent members of
the National Conference of Black Political Scientists.
