Danielson's masterful analysis of Mississippi's racially divided electorate proves that, despite the election of hundreds of blacks to public office, whites still hold all the levels of political power."--John Dittmer, author of Local People: The Struggle for Civil Rights in Mississippi "[Shows] that race remains at the absolute center of Mississippi politics, despite politicians' constant refuge in race-blind drivel. As such, the book is exceptionally powerful."--Journal of Southern History "A brilliant history of black politics and white resistance in post-civil rights era Mississippi. Danielson's work helps to fill the yawning gap in the black politics historiography between the Black Power movement and contemporary black politics.

Derek Musgrove, University of the District of Columbia "A well-researched work that is essential for any student wishing to understand modern Mississippi politics."--Southern Historian "By bringing together Mississippi's diverse cast of political actors in one compelling narrative, Danielson has performed a valuable service."--Journal of American Studies
