Описание: Godless Democrats and Pious Republicans? challenges a conventional wisdom in which recently mobilized religious and Secular extremists captured the parties and created a God gap. Using surveys (1960-2008), Claassen investigates the motivations of religious and non-religious activists and produces a new way of understanding the religious divide in American politics.
Описание: Documenting the Black Experience is motivated by two primary concerns:Versions of history taught at the elementary, middle, high school, and at times college levels often exclude significant events from African American history, such as the murder of Emmett Till or the Ku Klux Klan's murder of four black girls when it bombed the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. Such events are integral aspects of history that continue to inform America's racial politics. Their exclusion from traditional accounts of history is a problem that this project addresses by bringing more visibility to documentaries focusing on such stories, and thus the events themselves.Notable cinema books chronicling the history of documentary films and filmmaking follow a similar pattern, omitting the efforts of documentarians who have chronicled and continue to recount black-oriented stories. Therefore, this book also works to make documentary discourse more complete.Hence, Documenting the Black Experience works to bring attention to non-narrative films chronicling the African American experience in four areas - Civil Rights, Sports, Electronic Media, and And Beyond: The Contemporary Black Struggle - demonstrating how the issues that the films address continue to inform America's racial politics.

Описание: Contours of African American Politics chronicles the systematic study of African American politics and its subsequent recognition as an established field of scholarly inquiry
Описание: This book offers a new approach to reading the cultural memory of Africa in African American fiction from the post-Civil Rights era and in Black British fiction emerging in the wake of Thatcherism. The critical period between the decline of the Civil Rights Movement and the dawn of the twenty-first century saw a deep contrast in the distinctive narrative approaches displayed by diverse African diaspora literatures in negotiating the crisis of representing the past. Through a series of close readings of literary fiction, this work examines how the cultural memory of Africa is employed in diverse and specific negotiations of narrative time, in order to engage and shape contemporary identity and citizenship. By addressing the practice of “remembering” Africa, the book argues for the signal importance of the African diaspora’s literary interventions, and locates new paradigms for cultural identity in contemporary times.
