Pulitzer Prize-winner Cynthia Tucker and award-winning author Frye Gaillard carry Egerton's thesis forward in The Southernization of America, a compelling series of linked essays considering the role of the South in shaping America's current political and cultural landscape. They dive deeper, examining the morphing of the Southern strategy of Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan into the Republican Party of today, the racial backlash against President Obama, family separation on our southern border, the rise of the Christian right, the white supremacist riots in Charlottesville, the death of George Floyd, and the attack on our nation's capitol. They find hope in the South too, a legacy rooted in the civil rights years that might ultimately lead the nation on the path to redemption. Tucker and Gaillard bring a multiracial perspective and years of political reporting to bear on a critical moment in American history, a time of racial reckoning and democracy under siege"-- $c Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a Southern States $x Politics and government $y 1951- 650 0 $a Political culture $z Southern States. 650 0 $a Right-wing extremists $z Southern States. 650 0 $a Conservatism $z Southern States. 650 0 $a Democracy $z Southern States. 650 0 $a Political culture $z United States. 650 0 $a Right-wing extremists $z United States. 650 0 $a Conservatism $z United States. 650 0 $a Democracy $z United States. 700 1 $a Tucker, Cynthia, $d 1955- $e author. 941 $a 4 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20231107011118.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210024543.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220802014716.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220323010749.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A9A626BEAA6E11EC998F19923AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
