Julia Jordan-Zachery & Tiffany Willoughby-Herard 
Challenging the Legacies of Racial Resentment [EPUB ebook] 
Black Health Activism, Educational Justice, and Legislative Leadership

Ondersteuning

Domestic and international health activism and health policy are focal points in this volume, a publication of the National Conference of Black Political Scientists. This work demonstrates the continuing importance of the “medical civil rights movement, ” through examples of activism of women of color in AIDS service organizations, of their health issues, and of the struggle for racial equity in health care in Brazil.
Spikes in police and vigilante violence, as well as fear of a reversion to resegregated schools have brought a new urgency to black political activism. The contributors explore the effect of race on American attitudes toward immigration policy and reform, black state legislators and American morality politics, the historically disproportionate influence of Southern whites in American politics, and the undermining of school desegregation laws with “nullification” strategies. The volume’s Trends section features conversations on the #Black Lives Matter movement in Los Angeles, the 2016 presidential election, and examines the teaching of the Trayvon Martin story at the University of California, Irvine. The volume also includes a diverse selection of book reviews.
