Advance praise: 'This impressive volume advances scholarship on diversity in political institutions in novel and important ways. It is a must-read for judicial scholars and anyone interested in understanding how diversifying institutions affects the ways that institutions work and how they are perceived.' Valeria Sinclair Chapman, Purdue University, Indiana Advance praise: 'This volume makes a unique, timely, and important contribution to the discussion of identity politics and the US Judiciary. There are significant ramifications if our increasingly diverse population is not better reflected on the courts.' Christina Bejarano, University of Kansas
