Download or read book Black Elected Officials written by David A. Bositis and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1998 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Elected Officials presents a statistical account of the trends and status of Black elected officials in the United States between 1993 and 1997. The study breaks down the data, which shows that over that period, the number of Black elected officials grew by eight percent, with the greatest increase lying in the field of education. Also clarified are the tremendous differences over the different regions of the country, since the majority of the increases took place in the Southern states, while the number of Black elected officials actually decreased in the west. The study notes the extraordinary rise in the ranks among women, and the surprising overall change in leadership among Blacks. It shows that of all mayors of big cities, seventy-one percent have been elected since 1993, and of all members in the Congressional Black Caucus, seventy percent have taken office since that time. The study explains the status of Black elected officials, and also presents the statistics in a series of tables.

This book was released on 2005-12-12 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study assessing black civic participation after the civil rights movement, Fredrick C. Harris, Valeria Sinclair-Chapman and Brian D. McKenzie demonstrate that the changes in black activism since the civil rights movement is characterized by a tug-of-war between black political power on one side and economic conditions in black communities on the other. As blacks gain greater access and influence within the political system, black participation in political activities increases while downward turns in the economic conditions of black communities produce less civic involvement in black communities. Examining changes in black activism from the early 1970s to the 1990s, this tug-of-war demonstrates that the quest for black political empowerment and the realities of economic and social life act as countervailing forces, in which negative economic and social conditions in black communities weaken the capacity of blacks to organize so that their political voices can be heard.
