Book Description
Excerpt from Socialism and the American Spirit A noted author has urged the appointment in some leading university of a professorship of Amer ica. He would like to see there one man whose spe cial business it should be to teach the students that there is such a reality as American thought, that there are certain principles which belong to the Amer ican government, that there are certain feelings Which are experienced by none but an American, such cus toms as American customs, and that there has grown up a social order Which is distinctively Ameri can. Rev. Dr. Hale repudiates, of course, the no tion that science is one thing in Europe and another in the United States. American economics has no more existence than Belgian physics or Spanish chem istry. But the main point is beyond dispute. There is a social order which is distinctively American. It has been woven on the roaring loom of time by the American spirit. In these days When, as Mr. George J acob Holyoake has said, the social question is not only in the air, it fills the air, I have thought that a place is still open in an abundant literature for a discussion of the American answer to socialism.

America's First Black Socialist
Author: Nikki M. Taylor
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813140994
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
This authoritative biography chronicles the pioneering work of a nineteenth-century Black abolitionist and civil rights activist. Growing up in the free state of Ohio before the Civil War, Peter H. Clark dedicated himself to the abolitionist cause. In pursuit of equal citizenship for African Americans, Clark was at various times a loyal supporter of the Republican Party, and an advocate for the Democrats, and the country's first black socialist. Clark led the fight for African Americans' access to Ohio's public schools and became the first black principal in the state. America's First Black Socialist draws upon speeches, correspondence, and outside commentary to provide a balanced account of this influential yet neglected figure. Charting Clark's changing allegiances and ideologies from the antebellum era through the 1920s, this comprehensive biography illuminates the life and legacy of an important activist while also highlighting the black radical tradition that helped democratize America.

Book Description
What is the Emersonian spirit? What inspired it, what propelled it? And what does it mean to us today? Howe lays before us the intellectual and personal tragedy of the first great American man of letters, yet also shows that Emerson's belief in the untapped power of free men pervades not only the lives and works of his contemporaries but is also a permanent part of the American psyche.

United States of Socialism
Author: Dinesh D'Souza
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1250758300
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
The New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal Bestseller For those who witnessed the global collapse of socialism, its resurrection in the twenty-first century comes as a surprise, even a shock. How can socialism work now when it has never worked before? In this pathbreaking book, bestselling author Dinesh D’Souza argues that the socialism advanced today by the likes of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omar and Elizabeth Warren is very different from the socialism of Lenin, Mao and Castro. It is “identity socialism,” a marriage between classic socialism and identity politics. Today’s socialists claim to model themselves not on Mao’s Great Leap Forward or even Venezuelan socialism but rather on the “socialism that works” in Scandinavian countries like Norway and Sweden. This is the new face of socialism that D’Souza confronts and decisively refutes with his trademark incisiveness, wit and originality. He shows how socialism abandoned the working class and found new recruits by drawing on the resentments of race, gender and sexual orientation. He reveals how it uses the Venezuelan, not the Scandinavian, formula. D’Souza chillingly documents the full range of lawless, gangster, and authoritarian tendencies that they have adopted. United States of Socialism is an informative, provocative and thrilling exposé not merely of the ideas but also the tactics of the socialist Left. In making the moral case for entrepreneurs and the free market, the author portrays President Trump as the exemplar of capitalism and also the most effective political leader of the battle against socialism. He shows how we can help Trump defeat the socialist menace.
