'Closed for Democracy is a rigorous and compelling account of the costs of participation for black citizens in US democracy given the continued lack of responsiveness to their needs. As Nuamah shows, even when black citizens 'win' policy battles, they lose. This is a must-read for anyone interested in political loss, public things, democracy-building, black political behavior, and educational policy.' Juliet Hooker, Professor of Political Science at Brown University; Author, Theorizing Race in the Americas: Douglass, Sarmiento, DuBois and Vasconcelos, 'Today, long-time conservative assaults on American public institutions are at a fever pitch, with public schools a prime target. Using vivid ethnographic and statistical data, Sally Nuamah shows brilliantly how these battles are deepening disillusionment with American democracy, especially among America's often embattled citizens of color.' Rogers M. Smith, Christopher H. Browne, Distinguished Professor of Political Science, University of Pennsylvania, '... Leveraging and extending theories about policy target groups and feedback, Nuamah meticulously shows the emotional, intellectual and physical labor of political participation. By examining what happens when Black residents mobilize inside structurally unequal and racist systems, Nuamah raises important questions about the meaning and future of democracy.' Mara Sidney, Professor, Political Science, and co-author of Multiethnic Moments: The Politics of Urban Education, Rutgers-Newark, 'Public schools are the cornerstones of urban communities. They educate children, ensure child welfare and strengthen social and political engagement. In Closed for Democracy, Nuamah offers a sobering account of what happens to political life in under-resourced minority communities when public schools are closed. The book is well researched, timely and a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the race and class implications of policy feedback.' Ismail K. White, Professor of Politics and Public Affairs at Princeton University and co-author of Steadfast Democrats: How Social Forces Shape Black Political Behavior, 'Today long-time conservative assaults on American public institutions are at a fever pitch, with public schools a prime target.

In Closed for Democracy, Sally Nuamah answers powerfully and provocatively. Figuring out how to repay the collective participatory debt experienced by Nuamah's subjects is a question we must answer if we are to create a more perfect union.'

Synopsis
Every year, over 1,000 public schools are permanently closed across the United States. And yet, little is known about their impacts on American democracy. Closed for Democracy is the First book to systematically study the political causes and democratic consequences of mass public school closures in the United States. The book investigates the declining presence of public schools in large cities and their impacts on the Americans most directly affected - poor Black citizens. It documents how these mass school closure policies target minority communities, making them feel excluded from the public goods afforded to equal citizens. In response, targeted communities become superlative participators to make their voices heard. Nevertheless, the high costs and low responsiveness associated with the policy process undermines their faith in the power of political participation. Ultimately, the book reveals that when schools shut down, so too does Black citizens' access to, and belief in, American democracy., This book studies the high costs and suffering associated with battles to save public schools while poor and Black in America. It is valuable for understanding how repeated political battles, even those won by the poor and minoritized, can have serious negative impacts on their relationship to democracy.
