Efrén O. Pérez argues that Americas changing demographics are forging a new identity for many as people of color, which unifies the political outlook of assorted minority groups. He makes two key points: that a person of color's identity exists and can be reliably measured, and that identifying as a person of color profoundly shapes how minorities view themselves and their political system. Diversitys Child is a vital and engaging look at Americas identity politics. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 232 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 05 August 2021\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: The University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor decades, pundits and political scientists have been noting a significant demographic shift occurring in the United States. Demographers predict that whites will no longer comprise the majority of the population, and minority groups will collectively form a majority before 2050. In \"Diversity's Child,\" Efrén O. Pérez explores the political implications of this transformation. Pérez argues that the changing demographics of America are creating a new identity for individuals of color, uniting the political perspectives of various minority groups. Drawing on opinion surveys, social science experiments, content analyses, and in-depth interviews with minority individuals, Pérez makes two crucial points. Firstly, he establishes that the identity of a person of color exists and can be reliably measured and distinguished from other identities held by minorities. Secondly, he demonstrates that identifying as a person of color significantly shapes how minorities perceive themselves and their political system across various circumstances. \"Diversity's Child\" is a vital and engaging examination of America's identity politics, as well as the perspectives of people of color regarding racial disparities and the most effective approaches to address them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 330g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 228 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780226800134                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Efren O Perez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095391564026,"sku":"9780226800134","price":25.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/ea79c3167b554ece6b6b0a9c23e77576.jpg?v=1632366680","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/diversitys-child-people-of-color-and-the-politics-of-identity","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
