Opis

Amidst discontent over diversity, racial identity is a lens through which many US white Americans now view the political world.

Recenzje

'Jardina's research finds that it isn't just pundits and political scientists who have zeroed in on whiteness as an affirmative political identity: Many white Americans are identifying themselves with their racial group as well … Despite common oversimplifications about who these voters are, Jardina finds little evidence to suggest they are largely members of an economically fragile working class.' David A. Graham, The Atlantic
