This work provides a broad and authoritative survey of the ways in which gay Americans are influencing the tenor and trajectory of U.S. politics at the local, state, and national levels. An encyclopedic section offers thorough coverage of all of the individuals, organizations, cultural forces, political issues, and legal decisions that have combined to elevate the role of LGBTQ people at the ballot box, on the campaign trail, in Washington, and in mayors' offices, city councils, and school boards across the country.
Complementing reference entries are in-depth essays on the rising prominence of gay Americans as voters, candidates, public officials, lawmakers, and opinion leaders, providing further context for understanding their impact on modern U.S. political processes and institutions from the perspective of liberals and conservatives alike. Finally, the set includes a collection of important primary source documents that illuminate landmark events, examine gay policy priorities and preferences, and showcase the beliefs and experiences of prominent LGBTQ Americans in the world of politics.
"Are Black Voters Really This Misguided" is intended to be a provocative voting guide that will illicit intense discussion regarding black voter's propensity to vote for Democratic candidates. The book takes an historic perspective of the Democratic Party's long history of anti-black legislation and voting patterns.
The book contrasts the pre-civil war strategies that were used to control slaves on the plantation and compares them against current but similar Democratic legislative goals and efforts. The book dares to ask the question; Do black parents love their children less then parents of other races? If not, why do black voters continue to vote for inferior educations for their children? Why do black voter's vote for more crime and drugs in their neighborhoods? Why do black voter's vote for more government handouts and dependency?
This short book would be a great tool for classrooms throughout the country. Encouraging people of all races to question their voting patterns and reconsider what is really best for them, their children and their children's children.

Donald Trump, a thrice-married, no-need-of-forgiveness, blustery billionaire who rarely goes to church, won more Evangelical Christian votes than any candidate in history on his way to winning the 2016 US presidential election. Veteran journalist Angela Denker set out to uncover why, traveling the United States for a year, meeting the people who support Trump, and listening to their rationale.
In Red State Christians, readers will get an honest look at the Christians who gave the presidency to the unlikeliest candidate of all time. From booming, wealthy Orange County megachurches to libertarian farmers in Missouri to a church in Florida where the pastors carry guns to an Evangelical Arab American church in Houston to conservative Catholics on the East Coast--the picture she paints of them is enlightening, at times disturbing, but always empathetic. A must-read for those hoping to truly understand how Donald Trump became president.

Автор: Reilly Shauna Название: Language Assistance Under the Voting Rights ACT: Are Voters Lost in Translation? ISBN: 0739198092 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780739198094 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 163990.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Language Assistance under the Voting Rights Act provides an interesting and unique approach to the problem of translating minority language ballots and evaluating the causes and effects of differences in the translated ballot language. As a whole, this book demonstrates the strong relationship between accessibility, state policy, and the role this has on participation among minority language voters, particularly in the area of direct democracy. This offers insight into the complex relationship that has evolved into the current state of governance across the United States, as well as how covered jurisdictions interact with federally mandated language assistance. By looking at this relationship from a variety of standpoints--including historical and policy analysis, interviews, and statistical analysis--this book shows a new perspective of the translation process and the implications for minority voters and their efficacy.

Описание: This volume examines and assesses the role of context in affecting electoral behaviour.
A breakout media and political analyst delivers a sweeping snapshot of American Democracy and the role that African Americans have played in its shaping while offering concrete information to help harness the electoral power of the country's rising majority and exposing political forces aligned to subvert and suppress Black voters.
Black voters were critical to the Democrats' 2018 blue wave. In fact, 90 percent of Black voters supported Democratic House candidates, compared to just 53 percent of all voters. Despite media narratives, this was not a fluke. Throughout U.S. history, Black people have played a crucial role in the shaping of the American experiment. Yet still, this powerful voting bloc is often dismissed as some "amorphous" deviation, argues Tiffany Cross.
Say It Louder is her explosive examination of how America's composition was designed to exclude Black voters, but paradoxically would likely cease to exist without them. With multiple tentacles stretching into the cable news echo chamber, campaign leadership, and Black voter data, Cross creates a wrinkle in time with a reflective look at the timeless efforts endlessly attempting to deny people of color the right to vote--a basic tenet of American democracy.
And yet as the demographics of the country are changing, so too is the electoral power construct--by evolution and by force, Cross declares. Grounded in the most-up-to-date research, Say It Louder is a vital tool for a wide swath of constituencies.
