Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684811456. 336 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Paul Smith. keywords: African American Women Politics. DESCRIPTION - In 1993, shortly…after his inauguration, new President Bill Clinton nominated his old friend and classmate Lani Guinier to the prestigious and crucial post of Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. That nomination sparked an immediate firestorm of criticism from the right, labeling Professor Guinier the 'Quota Queen' and assailing her for the ideas expressed in her publications, most of which her opponents had not read, or had taken out of context and misunderstood. In the face of this concerted opposition -- what one friend of Guinier's called 'a low-tech lynching' -- Clinton backed down, not only withdrawing her nomination, but having refused throughout to give her an opportunity to speak out in her own defense (and his). The result was a civil rights setback of monumental proportions. Now, in this remarkable and important book, at once a memoir and insider's account of what really happened behind the closed doors of the Oval Office, the Justice Department, and the U.S. Senate, and an insightful look at the past, present, and future of civil rights in America, Lani Guinier at last breaks her silence. Unsparing of her own mistakes and shrewdly perceptive about the overt and hidden agendas of those who opposed her, Professor Guinier shows how the president promptly abandoned his ambitious agenda for civil rights at the first hint of criticism from the media and Congress -- and how the civil rights movement suffered a major setback as a result. More important, this book, in Professor Guinier's own words, is about 'the battles fought in the belief that our racial history and our commitment to equality and democracy are essential parts of the same story. inventory #24999.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. 25 cm. 336 pages. Sources. Index. Inscribed and dated by the author on the title page. Minor DJ wear and soiling. Lani Guinier (born April 19, 1950) is an American civil rights theorist. She is the Bennett Boskey Professor of Law at H…arvard Law School and the first woman of color appointed to a tenured professorship there. Guinier's work includes professional responsibilities of public lawyers, the relationship between democracy and the law, the role of race and gender in the political process, college admissions, and affirmative action. Guinier is probably best known as President Bill Clinton's nominee for Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights in April 1993.[ President Clinton withdrew his nomination in June 1993, following a wave of negative press that was brought on by her controversial writings, some of which even Clinton himself called "anti-democratic" and "very difficult to defend". Derived from a Kirkus review: Legal scholar Guinier describes the experience that made her famous and the lessons she learned from it. Guinier insists in this half-autobiography, half-treatise that Clinton actually did her a favor, despite her anger over the way she was treated by hostile critics, a press too lazy to verify attacks levied against her, and a president who had once been her friend. Guinier describes how she has relearned lessons from early in her career as a crusading lawyer for the Legal Defense Fund of the NAACP, that lasting social change comes from the bottom up, from an energized citizenry, rather than from top-down fiats from legislators or administration bureaucrats. Guinier repeatedly hits readers over the head with lectures on participatory democracy and building from the grassroots. She defends her belief in proportional representation, which so outraged right-wing pundits in 1993. Guinier is an original and stimulating thinker whose ideas may now get a broader and fairer airing.
