| Annotation | Class has always been a powerful force in African-American society. Gates presents a scholarly study of elite black society--whose criteria for membership included "family background, good breeding, occupation, respectability, and color." He writes of elite blacks across the nation, focusing on Washington, D.C., the "capital of the colored aristocracy." He also includes a comprehensive study of Senator Blanche K. Bruce. |
