Looking Back, Looking Forward: The Future of African American Conservatism in the 21st Century.Providing an expansive view of the making and meaning of African American conservatism, this volume examines the phenomenon in four spheres: the political realm, the academic world, the black church, and grass-roots activism movements. In his analysis of their activities in these realms, Louis Prisock examines the challenges African American conservatives face as they operate within the context of (largely white) conservatism. At the same time that African American conservatives challenge the white conservative movement’s principle of “colorblindness,” they are accused of being “racial mascots,” or tokens from those outside of it. Prisock unwinds the intricacies of black conservatives’ relationships to both the wider conservative movement and the everyday life experiences of black Americans, showing that they are as vulnerable to the “inescability of race” as any other individual in a racialized America. .African AmericansPolitics and governmentPolitical sociologyReligion and cultureReligion and sociologySocial sciencesEthnicityPolitics and governmentUnited StatesRace relationsAfrican AmericansPolitics and government.Political sociology.Religion and culture.Religion and sociology.Social sciences.Ethnicity.Politics and government.323.1196073Prisock Louis Gauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut982212MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910300581103321African Americans in Conservative Movements2241654UNINA
