"The second edition of Distinct Identities continues to provide a sophisticated yet accessible introduction to the complexities of the politics, social structures, and cultural contexts that animate how women of color engage in and shape U.S. politics. Keeping the structure of the original volume, this text represents the diverse and innovative scholarship being conducted in this field while covering the core topics in gender politics. What's New: Chapters on queer women of colour and the role of women of color and social movements. Chapters on the strategies that women of color run use to run for office, where they run, political newcomers (Asian and Indigenous women). Chapters on the experiences of women of color office holders. Chapters on policy analysis and the media's role in shaping the political agenda of women of color political elites. Distinct Identities pushes the boundaries of traditional intersectional scholarship and responds to America's rapidly diversifying demographics and political culture. It reflects cutting-edge scholarship and provides readers with insight to where the field of women of color politics will head in the coming years"--
