But how will these "new blacks" behave politically in America? Using an original survey of New York City workers and multiple national data sources, the author explores the political significance of ethnicity for new immigrant and native-born blacks. In an age where racial and ethnic identities intersect, intertwine, and interact in increasingly complex ways, this work offers an analysis of black politics and coalitions in the post-Civil Rights era. -- From publisher's website. 505 0 $a A theory of black elevated minority status -- "Where did you come from and what should I call you?" : how a New York City labor union explains changing demographics -- Political participation and the socialization of Blacks into unions and the polity -- "You win some, you lose some" : hard work and the Black pursuit of the American dream -- Union leadership and policy choices: trends in neutral and racial government policies. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Race identity. 650 0 $a Blacks $x Race identity $z United States. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a Blacks $z United States $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Employment. 650 0 $a Blacks $x Employment $z United States. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Relations with West Indians. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Relations with Africans. 650 0 $a Labor unions $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 941 $a 5 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019024941.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909042049.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826074808.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917012100.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20140418012141.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E7765E1AC6BE11E3BD04429CDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
