By Sarah Posner

…who has spoken at tea party rallies and who claimed at Michele Bachmann’s Code Red rally against health care reform that health care reform was “against the law of nature and nature’s God” and “against the Judeo-Christian ethic that this nation was built upon.” Broden also appears in Maafa 21, a propaganda film that claims that reproductive rights are a conspiracy to commit “black genocide.” The film has been promoted by the Frederick Douglass Fo…

Soccer and the Sublime in the Shadow of Apartheid

By Preston Davis

…also be pedestrian, taking place year-round on every continent, every zip code. It is a game, proven by its global appeal, which defies socioeconomic standing. Therein lies further emphasis of the World Cup’s importance, too: the world stage.

…rts which, Gaffney maintains, is happening as we speak.

Before Breitbart: How Right Wing Media Transformed American Politics

By Eric C. Miller

…nce. Notably, Breitbart does not define itself as conservative, but as populist-nationalist. It’s a competitor to outlets like Fox News and Glenn Beck, not because it’s conservative but because it’s challenging the conservative establishment. This is as much a media story as a politics one. By removing gatekeepers and lowering costs, the internet has enabled a broader range of political ideas, policy preferences, and ideologies to ferment online….

…foster a public philosophy that does not devolve into a narrowly individualist/materialist vision. How do we make room for the resources of religious and secular traditions in fostering a more adequate public ethic? Is making room for government-sanctioned religious discourse (when it has important nonreligious meanings) necessary for this endeavor?

They’re hoping to export this model to Africa and other countries in South America, so they were eager to be able to say that an American sociologist had survived two weeks in one of their prisons as a way of proving that their experimental model works! What was it like? There were three other inmates in my cell, i…

GOP Debate Invokes Lincoln-Roosevelt Gospel, Candidates Take Turns Trampling It

By Marcia Pally

…rly Fiorina said, government taxation and regulation crush growth. Her tax code is three pages long. In some contrast, T.R. thought government promotes growth by, among other things, regulating business. Cruz proposes a flat tax 10% so, he said, a millionaire doesn’t pay less than his secretary.
