If postmortems of the 2016 US presidential election tell us
anything, it's that many voters discriminate on the basis of race,
which raises an important question: in a society that outlaws
racial discrimination in employment, housing, and jury selections,
should voters be permitted to racially discriminate in selecting a
candidate for public office? In Whitelash, Terry Smith argues that
such racialized decision-making is unlawful and that remedies exist
to deter this reactionary behavior. Using evidence of race-based
voting in the 2016 presidential election, Smith deploys legal
analogies to demonstrate how courts can decipher when groups of
voters have been impermissibly influenced by race, and impose
appropriate remedies. This groundbreaking work should be read by
anyone interested in how the legal system can re-direct American
democracy away from the ongoing electoral scourge that many feared
2016 portended.
