- Winner of the Richard E. Neustadt Book Prize 2018, American Politics Group, this 328 page book upends the narrative that the Black Power movement allowed for a catharsis of black rage but achieved little institutional transformation or black uplift. Mainstreaming Black Power reveals how the War on Poverty cultivated black self-determination politics and demonstrates that federal, state, and local policies during this period bolstered economic, social, and educational institutions for black control. The book is underpinned by extensive archival sources derived from archives across the US and Germany as well as newspapers, periodicals, interviews and personal and political writing.
