Abstract

With the 2000 census showing very large increases in Latino urban populations, the issues of minority incorporation and interracial coalition are becoming more complicated than politics in black and white. Will Latino participation resemble the patterns of African Americans, in which minority mobilization relied in part on the support of ideological liberals? Or will the path taken by Latinos be qualitatively different from that of African Americans?
