Carey on HuffPo and AlterNet

Scott Kurashige kicked off a widely circulated article yesterday with a reference to Carey McWilliams. Fitting. The article looks at the role of race and ethnicity in the Democratic campaign: specifically, how California "flipped the script" when it comes to multiracial coalitions.

Kurashige is an associate professor at the University of Michigan. His new book is called The Shifting Grounds of Race: Black and Japanese Americans in the Making of Multiethnic Los Angeles (Princeton UP, 2007).
