A Study of Minority Agenda Setting Behavior by LaShonda Marie Brenson A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Political Science) in The University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Richard L. Hall, Co-Chair Professor Vincent L. Hutchings, Co-Chair Professor Robert W. Mickey Professor Alford A. Young c LaShonda Marie Brenson 2016 All Rights Reserved In the loving memory of Ella Ruth Brenson ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of individuals and organizations, in one way or another, extended their assistance in the preparation and completion of this dissertation, and for that, I am forever grateful. Nonetheless, I would be remiss if I did not mention the follow- ing persons and organizations without whom this dissertation would not have been possible. First, I give all honor and glory to my savior, Jesus. Without Him, I am nothing. Thank you for believing in me and being with me every step of the way. Second, I would like to thank my late mother, Ella Ruth Brenson, for the sacrifices you made for my siblings and I, but above all, thank you for introducing me to the unconditional love of Jesus. Your unexpected death during graduate school gave me the strength to keep going. I love you more than you'll ever know. Next, I would like to thank my dissertation committee for their unwavering sup- port and advice throughout the dissertation process. Rick and Vince, thank you for being a dynamic dual. Both of your personalities, expertise, and mentoring styles fit this dissertation project perfectly.
