Exploring the links between Senator Hubert Humphrey's policies on racial justice and economic reform, Thurber investigates Humphrey's legislative agenda in the context of the tensions between the class-based politics of the New Deal to which Humphrey wished the party to return and the rights-based politics that eventually came to dominate the Democratic platform.
