The necessary volume traces the long and complex history of African Americans in political office. The book describes the work of black politicians and public officials during Reconstruction, their loss of power after Reconstruction, and the struggle to regain public office. Readers will learn about the first black politicians and their accomplishments, and how, even today, many African Americans still face racism inside and outside of the political sphere.
