Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twentieth Anniversary Edition with a new preface and afterword From the removal of Confederate monuments in New Orleans in the spring of 2017 to the violent aftermath of the white nationalist march on the Robert E. Lee monument in Charlottesville later that summer, debates and conflicts over the memorialization of Confederate “heroes” have stormed to the forefront of popular American political and cultural discourse. In Written in Stone Sanford Levinson considers the tangled responses to controversial monuments and commemorations while examining how those with political power configure public spaces in ways that shape public memory and politics. Paying particular attention to the American South, though drawing examples as well from elsewhere in the United States and throughout the world, Levinson shows how the social and legal arguments regarding the display, construction, modification, and destruction of public monuments mark the seemingly endless confrontation over the symbolism attached to public space. This twentieth anniversary edition of Written in Stone includes a new preface and an extensive afterword that takes account of recent events in cities, schools and universities, and public spaces throughout the United States and elsewhere. Twenty years on, Levinson's work is more timely and relevant than ever.

Book excerpt: A fully updated and revised edition of the book USA Today called "jim-dandy pop history," by the bestselling, American Book Award–winning author "The most definitive and expansive work on the Lost Cause and the movement to whitewash history." —Mitch Landrieu, former mayor of New Orleans From the author of the national bestseller Lies My Teacher Told Me, a completely updated—and more timely than ever—version of the myth-busting history book that focuses on the inaccuracies, myths, and lies on monuments, statues, national landmarks, and historical sites all across America. In Lies Across America, James W. Loewen continues his mission, begun in the award-winning Lies My Teacher Told Me, of overturning the myths and misinformation that too often pass for American history. This is a one-of-a-kind examination of historic sites all over the country where history is literally written on the landscape, including historical markers, monuments, historic houses, forts, and ships. New changes and updates include: • a town in Louisiana that was the site of a major but now-forgotten enslaved persons' uprising • a totally revised tour of the memory and intentional forgetting of slavery and the Civil War in Richmond, Virginia • the hideout of a gang in Delaware that made money by kidnapping free blacks and selling them into slavery Entertaining and enlightening, Lies Across America also has a serious role to play in contemporary debates about white supremacy and Confederate memorials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of stories about the life of C. Lawrence Desmore that I wish to share with my children. These stories are experiences I have lived that we've never talked about. However, you need to know that your father is human and has made mistakes and here are some of them. The difference between success and defeat, is how you handle it. If you can look at yourself tomorrow and vow that you learned from yesterday's mistakes, then you can say; THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN A-G-A-I-N! This is twenty plus years of learning. Some lessons have been negative and some very positive. But all in all, it was life. Sometimes the wait is worth it, I only hope you, my children and other readers enjoy it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through brilliant portraits of real persons who created the myths and realities of the 1930s, the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Murray Kempton brings that turbulent decade to life. Himself a child of the time, Kempton examines with the insight and imagination of a novelist the men and women who embraced, grappled with, and in many cases were destroyed by the myth of revolution. What he calls the “ruins and monuments of the Thirties” include Paul Robeson, Alger Hiss, and Whittaker Chambers, the Hollywood Ten, the rebel women Elizabeth Bentley and Mary Heaton Vorse, and the labor leaders Walter Reuther and Joe Curran.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America was founded by people who wanted an independent country based on principles that ultimately led to the formation of the Constitution that insures the independence of the American people, limits government power, and protects God-given rights.Europe, on the other hand, has had a history of men who have usurped the rights of the people for centuries. The only real change in Europe has been which personalities and organizations controlled the people. This was the main reason that America was settled: To move out of that atmosphere and form something new in the history of man which became known as liberty.America served as an example to the rest of the world that the common man could rule himself with very limited control from government and prosper as individuals and as a country.There were those who could not allow this to happen if they meant to rule. To the Victor Go the Myths and Monuments is the story of a group of people from Europe who banded together to subvert American liberty, government, and religious system.It started within a group of men during the Enlightenment, then the Bavarian Illuminati, Revolutionary France, and German intellectuals and how they infiltrated into all aspects of our society, working to slowly change our American system into a system that they could control.This was to be accomplished by managed ignorance of our history. How they were able to subvert our schools, the publishing of history, the use of volatile issues, capture and even form our political parties in order to accomplish their purpose is the story of this book.It is not simply the story; it exposes those who were involved. You will find that not all of your heroes were really heroes.It will not be a dull read. History can be interesting, if told in a manner that opens your eyes to the real world.

This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American landmarks sometimes evoke more than their original intent.

Each site's history unfolds through the dismantling of a myth about it. Readers will become savvy tour guides of our nation's most treasured locations.
