Deracialization in Black Politics

Deracialization in Black Politics

Deracialization in Black Politics
There is currently a debate going on regarding the significance of deracialization as an ongoing development in American politics. The term "deracialization," when 
applied to American electoral politics, refers to the conduction of a political campaign by a black candidate in which racial issues and themes are minimized, if not avoided completely (Perry 1).
This is done to increase white electoral support, and the candidate is usually running for a position in a
district that has a white majority. Although deracialization has existed in the black political scene for a longer time,
this concept was particularly important to the 1989
elections in which nine African-American candidates were
elected or reelected to public office (Perry 1).
This election was not only important before of the
number of African-Americans who were elected, but also
because many of these positions represented the first time
that an African-American had been elected to that particular
position. Four of these nine successful candidates conducted
deracialized campaigns.
Barone also points out that 1994 was an excellent
election year for black candidates. New African-American
candidates began emerging from the places that have produced
successful female candidates - "the lower-ranking political offices that have traditionally been the stepping stones for
ambitious politicians" (23).The debate concerning deracialization has two majorcomponents. First, scholars ask
