Elected in 1983 by a multiracial coalition of voters, his victory was seen as a rebuke of the city's longstanding machine politics. Washington's Political Education Project, formed in 1984, helped organize this emerging Democratic coalition and brought him growing influence over national politics as the party sought a viable alternative to Reagan Republicanism. This book is less a biography than a narrative and analysis of Chicago's complicated role in late twentieth century American political history. Mantler places Harold Washington at the center of a complicated, multiracial political movement. The coalition politics associated with Washington's rise has lived on and is now regarded as the foundation of the contemporary Democratic Party electorate"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Introduction -- From politics to protest -- Shifting alliances -- Winning by losing? -- We were invisible -- The grassroots challenge -- Race and a new democratic coalition -- Fighting wars of all kinds -- Latinos and a governing majority -- The fragility of coalitions -- Epilogue: Legacies and the new machine. 600 10 $a Washington, Harold, $d 1922-1987. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n83205716 600 17 $a Washington, Harold, $d 1922-1987. $2 fast 650 0 $a African American mayors $z Chicago. $z Chicago. 650 0 $a Mayors $z Chicago. $z Chicago. 651 0 $a Chicago (Ill.) $x Politics and government $y 1951- $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85023242 651 0 $a Chicago (Ill.) $x Race relations. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 20th century. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85140455 650 6 $a Maires noirs ameÌricains $z Chicago. $z Chicago. 650 6 $a Maires $z Chicago. $z Chicago. 651 6 $a Chicago (Ill.) $x Administration $y 1951- 651 6 $a EÌtats-Unis $x Politique et gouvernement $y 20e sieÌcle. 650 7 $a African American mayors. $2 fast 650 7 $a Mayors. $2 fast 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast 651 7 $a Illinois $z Chicago. $2 fast 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast 648 7 $a Since 1900 $2 fast 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781469673882 830 0 $a Justice, power, and politics. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2013040694 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717024047.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=507BBECA440211EF98CC15ED37ECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
