Dean
My research efforts have focused on South Carolinaâs efforts to end racial desegregation in the late 20th century, with a particular focus on how the stateâs power structure (i.e., the political and economic âeliteâ) responded to the demands and allowed the Palmetto State to accommodate racial change without much of the violence, bloodshed, and chaos that engulfed many other Deep South states.
