Reviews

Candis Smith and Christina Greer have filled a significant void. This is the first book to examine how Black migratory patterns within metropolitan regions, urban neighborhoods, and across state boundaries-combined with the influx of Blacks from Africa and the Caribbean-have transformed Black Politics. Black Politics in Transition adds new insights and theories about African American political life. Marion Orr, Frederick Lippitt Professor of Public Policy & Professor of Political Science, Brown University, author of Black Social Capital Transitions are exciting, intimidating, hopeful, sad-and transformative. This book's focus on immigration, suburbanization, and gentrification is right on the front edge of scholarship, racial and ethnic politics, and individual choice or constraint. It sets us up for the next few decades of research on race in America. Jennifer Hochschild, Henry LaBarre Jayne Professor of Government, and Professor of African and African American Studies, Harvard University
