<br/><br/> "Are the interests of African American and Latino voters necessarily advanced by maximizing the number of blacks and Hispanics who serve in legislative bodies? Recent experience with districting, and the dynamics of coalition politics, suggest that the answer is 'not necessarily.'" (AMERICAN PROSPECT) The author contends that "the growing diversity of America demands coalitions and solutions that transcend the self-interest of racial solutions," and focus more support on race-neutral policies.
