Black Elected Officials presents a statistical account of the trends and status of Black elected officials in the United States between 1993 and 1997. The study breaks down the data, which shows that over that period, the number of Black elected officials grew by eight percent, with the greatest increase lying in the field of education. Also clarified are the tremendous differences over the different regions of the country, since the majority of the increases took place in the Southern states, while the number of Black elected officials actually decreased in the west. The study notes the extraordinary rise in the ranks among women, and the surprising overall change in leadership among Blacks. It shows that of all mayors of big cities, seventy-one percent have been elected since 1993, and of all members in the Congressional Black Caucus, seventy percent have taken office since that time. The study explains the status of Black elected officials, and also presents the statistics in a series of tables.
