A provocative exploration of Black America's growing disillusionment with the Democratic party and the fragile alliance between Black voters and political identity. A New York Times Editors' Choice Pick One of Kirkus Reviews' Best Nonfiction Books of 2022 "Political activist Collins-Dexter's essay collection is timely as well as pointed. In it, she argues that Democrats have taken Black voters for granted, and that the consequences of this mistake have already begun — and will accelerate." —The New York Times, "15 Works of Nonfiction to Read This Fall" In Black Skinhead, Brandi Collins-Dexter, former Senior Campaign Director for Color Of Change, delves into the complex relationship between Black voters and the Democratic party. Through sharp, timely essays that span the political, cultural, and personal, Collins-Dexter reveals decades of simmering disaffection in Black America, told as much through voter statistics as it is through music, film, sports, and the baffling mind of Kanye West. While Black Skinhead is an outward look at Black votership and electoral politics, it is also a funny, deeply personal, and introspective look at Black culture and identity, ultimately revealing a Black America that has become deeply disillusioned with the failed promises of its country.
