The radical mind : the destructive plans of the woke left
Author: Horowitz, David, 1939- author.
Published: 2024
Call Number: 320.513
Format: Books
Summary: "AMERICA IS HEADING TOWARD THE ABYSS! THE RADICAL MIND is both a stark warning and call to arms to protect the country from decline, ruin, and disgrace. It identifies the crisis facing the nation as a crisis of faith -- faith in the Constitution that has shaped our destiny, faith in individual freedom and accountability, faith in the principle of equality before the law. At stake? Nothing less than the American way of life and the liberty and freedoms all Americans enjoy. In his latest broadside against the radical left, New York Times bestselling author David Horowitz pulls back the curtain of secrecy and lies and exposes the dangerous methods and agendas of a woke left mob, and identifies what a decent society needs to do to keep the country from slipping away, including: Defend families against the intrusion of outside forces, ideological and governmental, which seek to capture the hearts and minds of children to serve their destructive agendas. Stop radicals from debasing Judeo-Christian values and silencing Christian communities and voices in favor of political state control. Reject progressive blindness, including false racist narratives that America is a racist country. Challenge the existential threat to American democracy from a Democratic Party that has made dialogue, compromise, and bipartisanship impossible and uses a corrupt and compliant media to unleash a constant tsunami of hate toward conservatives and ordinary Americans alike. Renew faith in the Constitution and in individual freedom. Read THE RADICAL MIND and join the fight against the destructive plans of the woke left."--Amazon.com.

The book of James : the power, politics, and passion of LeBron
Author: Babb, Valerie Melissa, author.
Published: 2023
Call Number: 796.323
Format: Books
Summary: "No athlete is referenced as frequently in commentaries on Black politics as LeBron James. The NBA all-star, gold medal Olympian, four time NBA champion, and four-time finals MVP has been a pivotal figure in both the culture and politics of basketball. Despite his unmatched skill, success and popularity, James has never been fully free from the entrenched racism and anti-blackness in American life. His story, of both success and adversity, represents a larger story of how conflicts and tensions off the court always make it into the game and how athletes of color reckon with their ascent to fame while still living in a deeply racist society. In The Book of James, Valerie Babb examines his evolution from a basketball protégé to social activist. Every day it becomes more apparent that basketball stardom is just the first step in the evolution of one of the most celebrated presences in modern American culture. This book considers the peaks and pitfalls of his route to this prominence as well as well as what separates his outspokenness from previous athletes. The Book of James is timely in its examination of his impact on national race discourse. The result is a unique blend of memoir, biography and criticism that brings into focus the role of athletes in shaping and altering public discourse while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of their sport"--
