Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A Wonderful Excavation Of The First Era Of Civil Rights Lawyering.Randall L. Kennedy, Author Of The Persistence Of The Color Lineken Mack Brings To This Monumental Work Not Only A Profound Understanding Of Law, Biography, History And Racial Relations But Also An Engaging Narrative Style That Brings Each Of His Subjects Dynamically Alive.Doris Kearns Goodwin, Author Of Team Of Rivalsrepresenting The Race Tells The Story Of An Enduring Paradox Of American Race Relations Through The Prism Of A Collective Biography Of African American Lawyers Who Worked In The Era Of Segregation. Practicing The Law And Seeking Justice For Diverse Clients, They Confronted A Tension Between Their Racial Identity As Black Men And Women And Their Professional Identity As Lawyers. Both Blacks And Whites Demanded That These Attorneys Stand Apart From Their Racial Community As Members Of The Legal Fraternity. Yet, At The Same Time, They Were Expected To Be Authenticthat Is, In Sympathy With The Black Masses. This Conundrum, As Kenneth W. Mack Shows, Continues To Reverberate Through American Politics Today.Mack Reorients What We Thought We Knew About Famous Figures Such As Thurgood Marshall, Who Rose To Prominence By Convincing Local Blacks And Prominent Whites That He Wasas Nearly As Possibleone Of Them. But He Also Introduces A Littleknown Cast Of Characters To The American Racial Narrative. These Include Loren Miller, The Biracial Los Angeles Lawyer Who, After Learning In College That He Was Black, Became A Marxist Critic Of His Fellow Black Attorneys And Ultimately A Leading Civil Rights Advocate; And Pauli Murray, A Black Woman Who Seemed Neither Black Nor White, Neither Man Nor Woman, Who Helped Invent Sex Discrimination As A Category Of Law. The Stories Of These Lawyers Pose The Unsettling Question: What, Ultimately, Does It Mean To Represent A Minority Group In The Giveandtake Of American Law And Politics?
