Omschrijving

'Gladys Mitchell-Walthour's The Politics of Blackness is a welcome addition to the burgeoning scholarship on Afro-Brazilian politics. Her nuanced exploration of ongoing patterns of political inequality and under-representation impacting Afro-Brazilians will generate interest among scholars and a more general public seeking to understand the relationship between color identification, electoral competition, and group affirmation in contemporary Brazil.' Michael G. Hanchard, University of Pennsylvania

'Gladys Mitchell-Walthour's The Politics of Blackness is a welcome addition to the burgeoning scholarship on Afro-Brazilian politics.

Michael G. Hanchard, University of Pennsylvania

'Gladys Mitchell-Walthour has produced a pioneering study of political behavior in three major cities of Brazil: Salvador, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. Building on recent literature focusing on race and color in Brazil, Mitchell-Walthour uses intersectionality theory imbued with knowledge of Brazilian gender, racial, and economic perspectives. Most important is the author's dedication to understanding how Afro-Brazilians explain political inequality and to using a mixed methods approach to understand how interpretations of life experiences of Afro-Brazilians affect individual and group outlook on the political world. Including everyday experience is a crucial component to understanding the importance of developing Afro-Brazilian influence on the political culture of Brazil.' Jan Hoffman French, University of Richmond

'The Politics of Blackness, by Gladys Mitchell-Walthour, is one of the most recent works to be added to this rapidly growing literature … it extensively documents important qualitative work on racial politics in Brazil, which is a significant contribution to the field.' Fabrício M. Fialho, Perspectives on Politics

'… a very nicely executed work, a challenging contribution that will inspire additional research in this field.' Minion K. C. Morrison, Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics
