About this item
An insightful investigation of how and why the two major political parties have failed to appeal to the Latino vote - the second largest ethnic voting group in the country - and the impact it will have on American democracy and politics for decades to come.. In 2020, Latinos became the second largest ethnic voting group in the country. They make up the largest plurality of residents in the most populous states in the union, as well as the fastest segment of the most important swing states in the US Electoral College. Fitting neither the stereotype of the aggrieved minority voter nor the traditional assimilating immigrant group, Latinos are challenging both political parties' notions of race, religious beliefs, economic success, and the American dream.
