Christina R. Rivers' timely account of the influence of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) on minority voting rights in the U.S. contains valuable insight into the historical and political role of race in the Supreme Court's voting rights decisions. <br> ---APSA Legislative Studies Section --Victoria Rickard APSA LSS Newsletter (02/22/2013)


Rivers explores the clash between the Congressional Black Caucus's race-conscious approach and the Supreme Court's color blind perspective on the role of race in redistricting, representation, and the law. ... Graduate seminars on racial politics, election law, or African American political thought would benefit from this book. Scholars who study these topics, in addition to voting rights, redistricting, and the Congressional Black Caucus, should also read this compelling and well-written book. -- American Review of Politics --David Canon American Review of Politics
