In Virginia's Native Son, the election of L. Douglas Wilder in Virginia represents the first and only time an African-American has been elected Governor in the United States history. The book hits on five main points of his election and administration (an analysis of the campaign victory, the media's response to the campaign, the racism involved with the election and administration, the administration itself, and the legacy of the administration).
J.L. Jefferies holds a Ph.D. from the University of Southern California and has taught at and held fellowships at Indiana University, Virginia Tech, Morehouse College, and Harvard University. He has written numerous scholarly articles and is co-editor of Spectrum: A Journal on Black Men Faculty.
