The Paradox of African American Journalists
Discusses the professional paradox of African American journalists focusing on Warren Breed's study on social control in the newsroom to determine why if the number of African American journalists is increasing, news is still covered from a white perspective. The consequence of this paradox is African Americans leaving the field of journalism. A. Lee

African Americans in the Contemporary Florida Legislature
Though the "descriptive" representation of African Americans in the FL state legislature increased steadily following the Voting Rights Act of 1965 & subsequent redistricting measures, it is unclear whether "substantive" representation -- black legislators' ability to represent black interests -- has also increased. House & senate journals & clerk manuals of the state's general assembly are used to analyze changes in the numbers of African Americans in this legislative body & their roll-call voting patterns , 1968-2000; the formation of voting coalitions with white legislators is also examined. The significance of the Congressional Black Caucus, black legislators' relationship with the governor, & the incorporation of blacks into leadership positions, especially committee chairpersonships, is also considered.
