Description
"As the first African American elected mayor of New York City, David Dinkins underwent intense scrutiny - first from the black community, then from white liberal supporters, the media, and the city's electorate. Wilbur C. Rich focuses on the critical role played in the perception of mayoral leadership. Using interviews with a variety of sources as well as the words of journalists, Rich examines media coverage as both the architect and challenger of Dinkins' image. The making and unmaking of David Dinkins not only exposes much about the agency of African American politicians, but also reveals the fragility of electoral coalitions."--Jacket.
