President Barack Obama and the "White Problem." 520 $a "In The Post-Liberal Imagination, Bruce Baum approaches American liberalism 'in a critical spirit' by examining the relationship between popular culture and politics in the Bush-Obama era. The book explores how contemporary popular culture arguably plays a larger formative role in contemporary US politics. Through analyzing movies, television, and popular music, the author discusses how these cultural productions illuminate notable political scenes of the American cultural landscape. In so doing, he provokes us to rethink the liberal notions - or liberal imaginings - of democracy, equality, racism, dissent, and animal rights"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Liberalism $z United States. 650 0 $a Popular culture $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Political culture $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2001-2009. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2009- 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826042313.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F0D1E7406B5311E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
