Abstract
Black urban regime refers to large, majority or near‐majority black cities in the United States governed by black mayors. The first examples of a black urban regime were Carl Stokes' and Richard Hatcher's election in Cleveland and Gary, respectively, in the late 1960s. The majority of black urban regimes arose in the 1970s and later. In the late 1980s, 13 US cities were defined as black urban regimes, while in 2001 the number had risen to 19 (Bositis 2002: 11, 26; Reed 1999: 254).
