Download or read book The Great Revolt written by Salena Zito and published by Forum Books. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A CNN political analyst and a Republican strategist reframe the discussion of the “Trump voter” to answer the question, What’s next? NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY FOREIGN AFFAIRS • “Unlike most retellings of the 2016 election, The Great Revolt provides a cohesive, non-wild-eyed argument about where the Republican Party could be headed.”—The Atlantic Political experts were wrong about the 2016 election and they continue to blow it, predicting the coming demise of the president without pausing to consider the durability of the winds that swept him into office. Salena Zito and Brad Todd have traveled over 27,000 miles of country roads to interview more than three hundred Trump voters in ten swing counties. What emerges is a portrait of a group of citizens who span job descriptions, income brackets, education levels, and party allegiances, united by their desire to be part of a movement larger than themselves. They want to put pragmatism before ideology and localism before globalism, and demand the respect they deserve from Washington. The 2016 election signaled a realignment in American politics that will outlast any one president. Zito and Todd reframe the discussion of the “Trump voter” to answer the question, What’s next?
Download or read book Thats Crap and You Know It written by Dee Ann Campbell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book may have caused you to raise your eyebrows just a little, but since you are reading this, it must have also caused you to pick it up to learn more. But it should cause you to do much more than that. It should cause you and the others who will read these chapters to think, to be concerned, and to act. That’s Crap and You Know It: How to Raise Conservative kids to Stand Against Liberalism is a challenge to conservative parents to get active, to get aggressive, and to get busy in order to raise their children to carry the conservative torch into the future. It is the call to imperative action – an action to show our kids what we believe as conservatives and why we believe it. The eleven chapters in this book set down what we know to be proven ways to raise kids who are certain and outspoken about their conservative beliefs. Through these pages, parents are shown how to promote political involvement within their kids, to teach them to use their voices in the ballot box and on the courthouse square, and to know the truth about our American history, our heritage, and the conservative principles that have made our nation the greatest on earth. Most importantly of all, this book is a call for parents to empower their kids, to give them license to speak out and to stand up – even when the liberal world tries to silence them with lies, name-calling, and an agenda that is vast and powerful. It is, if you will, a call to teach our conservative kids to respond to the liberal progressive agenda with those six little words that say it all... “That’s crap, and you know it”.

Download or read book Crap written by Wendy A. Woloson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-10-05 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crap. We all have it. Filling drawers. Overflowing bins and baskets. Proudly displayed or stuffed in boxes in basements and garages. Big and small. Metal, fabric, and a whole lot of plastic. So much crap. Abundant cheap stuff is about as American as it gets. And it turns out these seemingly unimportant consumer goods offer unique insights into ourselves—our values and our desires. In Crap: A History of Cheap Stuff in America, Wendy A. Woloson takes seriously the history of objects that are often cynically-made and easy to dismiss: things not made to last; things we don't really need; things we often don't even really want. Woloson does not mock these ordinary, everyday possessions but seeks to understand them as a way to understand aspects of ourselves, socially, culturally, and economically: Why do we—as individuals and as a culture—possess these things? Where do they come from? Why do we want them? And what is the true cost of owning them? Woloson tells the history of crap from the late eighteenth century up through today, exploring its many categories: gadgets, knickknacks, novelty goods, mass-produced collectibles, giftware, variety store merchandise. As Woloson shows, not all crap is crappy in the same way—bric-a-brac is crappy in a different way from, say, advertising giveaways, which are differently crappy from commemorative plates. Taking on the full brilliant and depressing array of crappy material goods, the book explores the overlooked corners of the American market and mindset, revealing the complexity of our relationship with commodity culture over time. By studying crap rather than finely made material objects, Woloson shows us a new way to truly understand ourselves, our national character, and our collective psyche. For all its problems, and despite its disposability, our crap is us.

Book excerpt: Radical Intellectuals and the Subversion of Progressive Politics is a challenge to contemporary radical politics and political thought. This collection of essays critiques the dominant trends and figures on the left that have distorted the legacy of progressive politics, arguing that they have moved politics away from issues of class and economic power toward a preoccupation with culture and identity. The contributors discuss this new radicalism from the perspective of a more rational form of leftism capable of reviving interest in a more politically relevant form of politics.
