Introduction -- Beyond black and white theories of political incorporation -- "Good" blacks and "bad" blacks? -- Letting sleeping giants lie -- Afro-Caribbean immigrants and African Americans racially bound -- Afro-Caribbean sojourners -- Black like who? Afro-Caribbean immigrants, African Americans, and the politics of group identity.
This examination of the political behaviour of Afro-Caribbean immigrants in New York City explores how racism complicates the political integration patterns of racial minorities in the US. It provides a focus on the differences in experiences between native and foreign born among the American black population.
