Today, many see them as traitors, selling their souls for power. In 2021, Black conservatives are the greatest grift. Journalist and radio host Clay Cane examines how the Republican party evolvedinto a safe space for racists and how Black Republicans attempt to gain power by aligning themselves with white supremacy. Black Republicans consistently make viral news, whether it's Senator Tim Scott, 2016 presidential candidate Ben Carson, or radical conservative commentator Candace Owens, who proudly upholds white supremacy to gain power. Why are they so popular? Where did they come from? And how did Black Republicans mutate from freedom fighters like Frederick Douglas to Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron? "Skin folk who ain't kinfolk," as Zora Neale Hurston famously said, have always been dangerous to the progress of Black communities. They are grifters, invested in disenfranchising their own for proximity to power. Cane reveals this divergence in fascinating historical detail"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Republican Party (U.S. : 1854-) $x History. 650 0 $a African American politicians $x History. 650 0 $a African Americans $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a White supremacy $x Political aspects $z United States. 776 08 $i Online version: 776 08 $a Cane, Clay. $t Grift $d Naperville, Illinois : Sourcebooks, 2024 $z 9781728290232 $w (DLC) 2023025402 941 $a 12 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524010949.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409045442.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012830.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240403015621.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20240402013107.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240402010637.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20240316010658.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240305011743.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240305011506.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240302011906.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240302011518.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240123010209.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1B87316AB9BD11EE8D04BAA53BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
