By Carmen Celestini

…e about the biography of groups or the nation; nostalgia lies in the plane between the personal and the collective memory. In this light MAGA was the perfect slogan for a figure like Donald Trump.

Trump and Hindu Nationalism: A Match Made in Bollywood

By Andrea R. Jain

…at all Indians must appropriate and live under. Together, the RHC and Modi promote a narrow vision of Hinduism in the guise of Indian culture locally and abroad. Modi’s government has increasingly used the country’s broad and vague laws restricting free speech to stifle many forms of dissent, according to a recent report by Human Rights Watch. In addition to providing vague “values” Trump allegedly shares with Hindu Americans—“hard work, education…

Lindsey Graham’s Lying “Eye-ranians”

By Haroon Moghul

…south—wait, did someone cheer?—would be to break apart a growing alliance between the left and minority communities of color by using people of color, about whom it’s a lot harder to argue ‘you’re just poorly disguised Southern white supremacists,’ to argue your points. But that would mean talking to people who are lying to you, like I am right now. Thank you, and God bless America. *For least accuracy and most patriotism, please pronounce ‘Ira…

Krapp’s Last Tweet: The Rise (and Fall?) of Privilege in the Digital Economy

By Kevin Healey

…f online content, a number of news articles did manage to connect the dots between Ferguson and the discriminatory housing policies put in place after World War II. As I have argued before, new technologies tend to augment existing systems of privilege. Yet there is reason to hope that digital media may yet catalyze a more just future. Dear Prudence Before jumping from his capsule, with all eyes watching, Baumgartner remarked, “Sometimes you have…

By Mike Greer

…uity, women’s autonomy in reproductive health choices, and the right to be free from religious discrimination in the public sphere. The fact that McConnell readily agreed to participate in Mohler’s “issues forums,” even while he and Grimes were negotiating the terms of their debates, certainly raises the specter of political collusion. McConnell is on record saying that he wants Lincoln-Douglas style debates—no questions from the media or the publ…

Of Mosques and Men

By Amina Wadud

…a dormitory and besides going to class and a small part time job, I was a free bird. In Ramadan a free bird, flies high on the rituals of the month. I stood for 20 units or tarawih every night that I was fasting. Like the first time reading through the Qu’ran in Arabic on my own this was exhilarating. Somewhere around 12 or 14 units, I lost track of everything outside of the recitation and the ritual performance—the zone. It was even more intense…

The Big Lie Misrepresentation in Louisiana “Seal of Confessional” Case

By Jason Hines

The systematic abuse of the free exercise clause strikes again. In this latest episode, according to bloggers at Hot Air and the American Conservative, “[t]he Louisiana Supreme Court has ruled that a priest must testify in a case about what he heard in a confessional,” and “Fr. Bayhi will have to go to jail to protect the seal of the confessional.” These pundits can, to some extent, be forgiven for these misleading statements since the Catholic C…

By Ed Simon

…days, the ways in which we can measure the extremities of human experience between the lushness, the decadence, the celebration of Tuesday and the death of Wednesday. “Eat drink and be merry,” somebody once wrote.

That term is most associated with the twentieth-century Russian literary critic Mikhail Bakhtin who, in…

Jerusalem Honors Right-Wing Mogul Sheldon Adelson

By Diane Winston

…oing his best to spread the message through Israel HaYom (Israel Today), a free tabloid that is the country’s must-read news outlet. Adelson told reporters at the Jerusalem gathering that he does not dictate the newspaper’s coverage or editorials, but that both reflect his point of view and that of his close friend, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In a nation of news junkies, Israel HaYom is trying to steer public opinion to the right. And it’s…
