Focusing on the historical roots of minority rule in America, the book examines the role of the United States Senate and the filibuster in obstructing progress toward a multiracial democracy. Adam Jentleson argues that the filibuster, which is not enshrined in the Constitution, has been exploited by white conservatives since the nineteenth century to maintain power. The narrative includes a new epilogue addressing recent filibuster conflicts during the Biden administration, emphasizing the ongoing implications of this political strategy.
