Text of Note

"In Guess Who's Coming to Dinner now? Angela Dillard offers the first comparative analysis of a conservatism which today cuts across the boundaries of race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality." "To be an African American and a conservative, or a Latino who is also a conservative and a homosexual, is to occupy an awkward and contested political position. Dillard explores the philosophies, politics, and motivations of minority conservatives such as Ward Connerly, Glenn Loury, Linda Chavez, Clarence Thomas, and Bruce Bawer, as well as their tepid reception by both the Left and Right. Welcomed cautiously by the conservative movement, they have also frequently been excoriated by those African Americans, Latinos, women, and homosexuals who view their conservatism as betrayal. Central to this issue of their marginalization - or double marginalization - is the manner in which multicultural conservatives have conceptualized and presented their public, political selves. This, in turn, raises provocative questions about the connections between identity and politics, and the claims of cultural authenticity." "Dillard's study, among the first to take the history and political implications of multicultural conservatism seriously, will be a vital source for understanding contemporary American conservatism in all its forms."--Jacket.
