Migrants, Metrics, and the Making of the Politics of Consumption in the Progressive Era
In February 1920, Los Angeles County Health Officer J. L. Pomeroy commented on the habits and practices of Asian immigrants: The Japanese claim to be a cleanly race, and yet inspections made throughout the county of the housing conditions scarcely bear this out. The bath-tub as used on a Japanese farm is an imported affair. One tub of water is heated for the entire family group, which consists of eight or ten people.... Facilities for privacy see…
The Strangers in Our Midst: American Evangelicals and Immigration from the Cold War to the Twenty-First Century. By Ulrike Elisabeth Stockhausen
Viajando em Jesus”: Os evangélicos norte-americanos e a contracultura
The political mobilization of conservative Protestants in the United States since the 1970s is commonly viewed as having resulted from a “backlash” against the alleged iniquities of the 1960s, including the excess-es of the counterculture. In contrast, this article maintains that conservative Protestant efforts to infiltrate and absorb the counterculture contributed to the organizational strength, cultural attractiveness, and politi-cal efficacy …
Kevin M. Kruse. One Nation under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America
A popular thought experiment to highlight the close connection between religion and politics in the United States is to raise the question whether an avowed atheist would have a realistic chance of being elected president. While many other potentially disqualifying characteristics have not stood in the way of getting to the White House, a professed absence of belief, particularly of the Judeo-Christian type, has tended to limit one’s chances of e…
Piety and Public Funding: Evangelicals and the State in Modern America
Despite the separation of church and state, public aid to religious agencies has traditionally been part of liberal social policy. This book shows that the post-World War II expansion of public funding for evangelical health care, educational, welfare, and foreign relief increasingly benefited the religious Right and contributed to its resurgence.
The Cambridge Companion to W. E. B. Du Bois
W. E. B. Du Bois was the pre-eminent African American intellectual of the twentieth century. As a pioneering historian, sociologist and civil rights activist, and as a novelist and autobiographer, he made the problem of race central to an understanding of the United States within both national and transnational contexts; his masterwork The Souls of Black Folk (1903) is today among the most widely read and most often quoted works of American liter…

Race Woman: The Lives of Shirley Graham Du Bois
Shirley Graham Du Bois was a leading African American artist and political activist, yet many scholars refer to her only as W. E. B. Du Bois's second wife. The main accomplishment of Gerald Horne's astute biography is to rescue Graham Du Bois from oblivion, acknowledg e her remarkable artistic achievements, reappraise her controversial political record, and reconstruct the transatlantic black Left in the postwar era. The book takes the reader fro…
