Review Quotes

That there are other books on Black electoral behavior is hardly a matter of dispute, but this book on the subject matter, with a focus on Black Republicans#39; electoral behavior and political attitudes by Aaron L. Bell, is unequalled by any of the previous works. Indeed, the analysis of the book is novel and of very high quality. The Black Electoral Dichotomy: An Assessment of Black Republican Electoral Behavior and Political Attitudes during the 2016 Presidential Election is compelling and well-informed; it offers a healthy comparison of the critical balance sheets of the achievements and shortcomings of Black electoral behavior and individuals in dealing with the vexing questions of the past and the present. It is ground-breaking and theoretically and methodologically well grounded. In sum, the book is a lucid and stringent corrective to the lazy complacency of much conventional wisdom about the past and the present of Black political behavior and, thus, quite timely in this presidential election season during which the Black vote is well sought.
