Jonathan L.
Wharton s A Post-Racial Change Is Gonna Come is a fresh approach to
understanding African American politics in the current political environment. It is an
indispensable upgrade of the key research that gave students of US urban politics and African
American politics a deeper understanding of the move from protest to electoral politics and
political incorporation more than two decades ago. Wharton s work will inform students of
post-Civil Rights era black and urban politics for at least another generation, regardless of
Booker s subsequent fate in state and national politics.
—
James Lance Taylor, Chair and Professor of Politics, University of San Francisco, USA, and
author of Black Nationalism in the United States: From Malcolm X to
Barack
Obama
(2011)
This book is a wonderful contribution to the literature on African American Politics and the
changing politics of race in urban America. By situating Cory Booker s multiracial coalition
politics within a contemporary and historical framework, A Post-Racial Change Is Gonna
Come deepens our awareness of the complexities of electoral politics on local, state, and
national levels in the so-called post-racial era. Wharton s call for sustainable coalitions as a
new way of organizing can produce more inclusive democracies in American cities.
—Ronald Williams II, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA
This work offers a political and historical analysis of Newark s modern politics since
1950,
culminating with Mayor Cory Booker s rise to power and prominence both in the city and
in American political consciousness. Newark s recent political history offers an interesting
case study in mayoral elections, community development, and coalition building politics.
While Newark is the quintessential post-industrial city, Booker has received critical attention
for his post-racial politics since he frequently bypasses racial and traditional urban politics.
At the same time, relations between the mayor, the municipal council, and Newark s diverse
communities were often so fractious that sustainable coalition building proved to be an
elusive goal to resolve longstanding crime, education, and other social problems. Based on
original interviews with Cory Booker, city council members, and other prominent Newark
politicians, A Post-Racial Change Is Gonna Come is a powerful history of how Newark became
the focal point for transformative politics in urban America.
Jonathan
L
Wharton is Assistant Professor of Political Science and History at Stevens Institute
of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey, USA. Specializing in community development in
addition to state and local politics, he has followed urban politics in northern New Jersey for
more than a decade. As a former Newark resident and policy researcher, Wharton monitored
the mayoral elections and city hall politics in Newark and nearby municipalities. He currently
lives across Newark Bay in Jersey City where he is active with his neighborhood community
board and county economic development committee.
