For the Children's Sake
An Effective, Holistic Guide for Teaching Children in Any Educational Setting Every parent and teacher wants to give his or her children the best education possible. They hope that the teaching they provide is a joyful adventure, a celebration of life, and preparation for living. But sadly, most education today falls short of this goal. For the Children's Sake imagines what education can be based on a Christian understanding of the meaning of life and what it means to be human—a child, a parent, a teacher. The central ideas have been proven over many years and in almost every kind of educational situation, including ideas that author Susan Schaeffer Macaulay and her husband, Ranald, have i...
Confronting Ethnic White Christian Nationalism
This book uses a quantitative-statistical approach to examine the impact of the White Christian nationalist movement on American society, focusing on its influence on social institutions. Why has a plurality of citizens in the US supported nationalistic, inequitable, oppressive political philosophies? Chuck A. Baker argues that citizens become more receptive to nationalism when it is presented in racialized and religious terms, when racial and religious segregation is made acceptable by invoking fear that forces citizens to choose and accept a zero sum perception of winning for their survival, and by tying it to a religious context makes ethnic nationalism less unpleasant through the implication that it is divinely ordained. By exploring the interaction between ethnic nationalism and Christian nationalism and in a variety of social institutions including government, media, education, military, and economy, Chuck A. Baker reveals the justifications and rationalizations that contribute to making right-wing politics appealing to some people.
At a Loss for Words
AN INSTANT #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER Award-winning author and broadcast journalist Carol Off digs deep into six words whose meanings have been distorted and weaponized in recent years—including democracy, freedom and truth—and asks whether we can reclaim their value. As co-host of CBC Radio's As It Happens, Carol Off spent a decade and a half talking to people in the news five nights a week. On top of her stellar writing and reporting career, those 25,000 interviews have given her a unique vantage point on the crucial subject at the heart of her new book—how, in these polarizing years, words that used to define civil society and social justice are being put to work for a completely differ...
Making Sense of the Alt-Right
During the 2016 election, a new term entered the mainstream American political lexicon: “alt-right,” short for “alternative right.” Despite the innocuous name, the alt-right is a white-nationalist movement. Yet it differs from earlier racist groups: it is youthful and tech savvy, obsessed with provocation and trolling, amorphous, predominantly online, and mostly anonymous. And it was energized by Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. In Making Sense of the Alt-Right, George Hawley provides an accessible introduction and gives vital perspective on the emergence of a group whose overt racism has confounded expectations for a more tolerant America. Hawley explains the movement’s ori...
Stolen Youth
The kids are not alright. The Left is waging an all-out battle on the American family, particularly the youngest members. If they can make our children miserable, lead them to question every building block of society, and rebuild their entire concept of reality, then the Left and their woke indoctrinators will consider that a victory. But we can't let them win. As concerned parents and American citizens, we have to understand what' truly going on before we can do something about it. Stolen Youth provides an urgent deep dive into issues surrounding the current woke indoctrination happening in politics, education, medicine, mental health, entertainment, and culture. These issues may seem subtl...
Hold, Please
A Broadway Stage Manager's pandemic memoir! Winner of the 2022 International Impact Book Award Winner and the 2022 Pinnacle Book Achievement Award! March 12, 2020 Last night, after weeks of downplaying and ridiculing the virus, we were finally told by our President, that it is, in fact, serious… And so, it began. Broadway shut down. Instead of sitting in a darkened theatre every night watching Jersey Boys, Richard Hester, like many other people, found himself sitting on his sofa glued to the news, As the days that followed unfolded and turned into weeks and then into months, we all experienced a profound seismic shift. The virus spread, infecting millions. We lost friends and family. Our e...
Government Gone Wild
Government that governs less, governs best. In this collection of columns, venerated journalist John Stossel (Stossel TV, ABC’s “20/20”) dissects the ways government harms Americans more than it purports to help them. Overreaching bureaucracy threatens to creep into Americans’ personal lives more each day. Issues that are personal to Americans—education, health care, free speech and so on—are being politicized and sold out for profit. Politicians are risking individual liberty by lording over the decisions that Americans ought to make themselves. Stossel’s extensive reporting proves the best way forward is to give more power back to the people.
The Death of Expertise
"In the early 1990s, a small group of "AIDS denialists," including a University of California professor named Peter Duesberg, argued against virtually the entire medical establishment's consensus that the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was the cause of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. Science thrives on such counterintuitive challenges, but there was no evidence for Duesberg's beliefs, which turned out to be baseless. Once researchers found HIV, doctors and public health officials were able to save countless lives through measures aimed at preventing its transmission"--
