Beschreibung:
Jas M. Sullivan is an assistant professor of political science and African and African American studies at Louisiana State University. Jonathan Winburn is an assistant professor of political science at the University of Mississippi.
Since the creation of the Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus in 1977, the number of black lawmakers in the Louisiana Legislature has increased; however, on many of the socioeconomic indicators, the condition of their constituents has failed to improve. In The Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus, Jas M. Sullivan and Jonathan Winburn analyze the evolution of the LLBC and examine its current state, raising critical questions as to the effectiveness and limitations of this body of minority legislators.
