      abstract = {Providing an expansive view of the making and meaning of  African American conservatism, this volume examines the  phenomenon in four spheres: the political realm, the  academic world, the black church, and grass-roots activism  movements. In his analysis of their activities in these  realms, Louis Prisock examines the challenges African  American conservatives face as they operate within the  context of (largely white) conservatism. At the same time  that African American conservatives challenge the white  conservative movement's principle of "colorblindness," they  are accused of being "racial mascots," or tokens from those  outside of it. Prisock unwinds the intricacies of black  conservatives' relationships to both the wider conservative  movement and the everyday life experiences of black  Americans, showing that they are as vulnerable to the  "inescability of race" as any other individual in a  racialized America.},
