Reviews"This book is truly unique. I feel like students are getting two curricula in one, with a focus on both an introduction to American government and race and politics in the U.S."--Jennifer Sacco, Quinnipiac University "American Government in Black and White surveys the basic issues of American politics in an original fashion. By examining racial attitudes and history, the insights drawn from the book are far different than those from other texts Students enjoy this focus, and it provides the basis for a more heartfelt and interesting discussion of the issues in class."--Richard Waterman, University of Kentucky "American Government in Black and White gives a more complete picture of the historical nuances of the country's policies, and how groups have organized to try and impact the political process towards the betterment of society."--Maria Gabryszewska, Lone Star College-Cy Fair
