As the rest of the U.S. watched, California voters banned public services for undocumented immigrants, repealed public affirmative action programs, and outlawed bilingual education, among other measures. Why did a state with a liberal political culture, an increasingly diverse populace, and a well-organized civil rights leadership roll back civil rights and anti-discrimination gains? Daniel Martinez HoSang finds that, contrary to popular perception, this phenomenon does not represent a new wave of "color-blind" policies, nor is a triumph of racial conservatism. Instead, in a book that goes beyond the conservative-liberal divide, HoSang uncovers surprising connections between the right and left that reveal how racial inequality has endured. Arguing that each of these measures was a proposition about the meaning of race and racism, his deft, convincing analysis ultimately recasts our understanding of the production of racial identity, inequality, and power in the postwar era. 410 0$aAmerican Crossroads 606 $aCalifornia -- Politics and government -- 1945- 606 $aCalifornia - Politics and government - 1945- 606 $aCalifornia - Politics and government - 1951- 606 $aCalifornia - Race relations - History - 20th century 606 $aCalifornia -- Race relations -- History -- 20th century 606 $aReferendum - California - History - 20th century 606 $aReferendum -- California -- History -- 20th century 606 $aReferendum$xHistory$y20th century$zCalifornia 606 $aRegions & Countries - Americas$2HILCC 606 $aHistory & Archaeology$2HILCC 606 $aUnited States Local History$2HILCC 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aCalifornia -- Politics and government -- 1945-. 615 4$aCalifornia - Politics and government - 1945-. 615 4$aCalifornia - Politics and government - 1951-. 615 4$aCalifornia - Race relations - History - 20th century. 615 4$aCalifornia -- Race relations -- History -- 20th century. 615 4$aReferendum - California - History - 20th century. 615 4$aReferendum -- California -- History -- 20th century. 615 0$aReferendum$xHistory 615 7$aRegions & Countries - Americas 615 7$aHistory & Archaeology 615 7$aUnited States Local History 676 $a979.4053 700 $aHoSang$b Daniel Martinez, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01018945 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459578003321 996 $aRacial Propositions$92399550 997 $aUNINA
