Did the historic election of a black president actually change the status of blacks in the United States? Did these changes (or lack thereof) inform blacks' perceptions of the President?This book explores these questions by comparing Obama's promotion of substantive and symbolic initiatives for blacks to efforts by the two previous presidential administrations. By employing a comparative analysis, the reader can judge whether Obama did more or less to promote black interests than his predecessors. Taking a more empirical approach to judging Barack Obama, this book hopes to contribute to current debates about the significance of the first African American presidency. It takes care to make distinctions between Obama's substantive and symbolic accomplishments and to explore the significance of both.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Social Sciences, Society & CultureItem Width: 14mmItem Weight: 363gRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
