The author of the bestselling "Freemasons" pens the only book to focus exclusively on the influence of Freemasonry on the history of the United States.

What Is Their Secret And What Are They Hiding? Step inside the secret world of the Masons and discover: How such pivotal American documents as the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights reflect Masonic principles and influence. How Freemasons became the world's oldest and largest fraternal organization. If Freemasons rule the world--or want to. Why Masonic symbolism appears on American currency. Why the opposition groups, from conspiracists to the Catholic Church, fear Freemasons. Why Texas has been called "the Masonic Republic." How to recognize Masonic rings, pins, and other symbols. From George Washington to Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, the Freemasons have influenced the United States in many surprising ways. With nearly half the world's six million Freemasons--some twenty-five U.S. presidents and thirty-five Supreme Court justices among them--America has felt the group's impact more deeply and broadly than any other country. Using historical anecdotes and incisive analysis, this timely and insightful portrait separates the myths surrounding Freemasonry from the facts, offering a unique insider's view into what American Freemasonry was, is, and will be tomorrow. H. Paul Jeffers has published more than 50 works of fiction and nonfiction, including Freemasons: Inside the World's Oldest Secret Society, biographies of presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Grover Cleveland, New York mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, Diamond Jim Brady, and others. He lives in Manhattan.

The 2000s

Eine scharfsinnige Gegenwartsanalyse über moderne Anhängerschaft und die Macht der Sprache – bekannt aus dem Kult-Podcast »Sounds Like a Cult«Die wenigsten Menschen fühlen sich einem Kult zugehörig, und dennoch fallen viele in den verzweigten Kaninchenbau ihrer bizarren Gerüchte und Versprechungen. Dabei sind es nicht allein Sekten wie Scientology, die unseren Alltag durchdringen, sondern auch unscheinbare Lifestylekulte um Fitnessgeräte, Stars oder Produkte.Für die Linguistin Amanda Montell greifen vage Erklärungen wie Brainwashing oder Gedankenkontrolle zu kurz. Statt Kulte zu verteufeln, sollten wir vielmehr erkennen, mit welcher Sprache sie versuchen, einzelne Menschen von der Gesellschaft zu trennen und ihre Ideologie durchzusetzen. Von den wechselhaften Anredeformen des Sektenführers Jim Jones bis zum Love-Bombing der Netzwerk-Marketing-Profis – mit ihrer bissig komischen und persönlichen Auseinandersetzung mit unserem kultischem Denken lehrt uns Amanda Montell die Sprache der Kulte. Denn wir bemerken sie meist erst dann, wenn wir schon viel zu tief drinstecken. »Die meisten von uns waren noch nie Mitglied in einer Sekte, doch das heißt nicht, dass unser Leben von sektiererischem Denken unberührt ist. Wie diese scharfzüngige und witzige Serie zeigt, haben einige der weltgrößten Unternehmen ihren Erfolg durch das Kultivieren von Anhängern aufgebaut.«The New York Times

"Unjust Restitution&nbsp;challenges us to think more deeply about a deceptively simple idea: 'equality of opportunity.' Michael K. Brown successfully bridges many different fields that usually ignore or speak past each other to show how&nbsp;the idea of equality&nbsp;of opportunity traveled across time and space as part of a century's long quest for racial and economic justice."—Kimberley Johnson, author of&nbsp;Reforming Jim Crow: Southern Politics and State in the Age Before Brown "In a time when seventeen states are reviewing legislation designed to jail librarians for providing access to books that tell the history of slavery and its tumultuous aftermath, Michael K. Brown has produced the appropriate response:&nbsp;Unjust Restitution&nbsp;is a meticulously documented, richly textured account of the many ways Black resistance to white supremacist policies has been a multipronged enduring core of US race relations for two centuries. This volume will be a rich resource for legal scholars and social scientists for decades."—Troy Duster, coauthor of&nbsp;Whitewashing Race:&nbsp;The Myth of a Color-Blind Society "Thoroughly researched and supported by persuasive evidence,&nbsp;Unjust Restitution&nbsp;makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of the relationship between federal reform efforts and African Americans' struggles for racial and economic justice."—Greta de Jong, author of&nbsp;You Can't Eat Freedom: Southerners and Social Justice after the Civil Rights Movement "Michael K. Brown has written a masterful book about both the ambitions and difficulties inherent in foundational civil rights reform. Elegantly written and brilliantly researched, Brown finds through his examination of three major reform eras—Reconstruction, the New Deal, and the War on Poverty—that civil rights activists were consistently frustrated by the limited ideological and socioeconomic vision of liberal policy elites. As he has throughout his sterling career, Brown powerfully illuminates the necessity of confronting historically entrenched racial discrimination with fundamental reforms to the nation’s political economy."—Paul Frymer, author of&nbsp;Building an American Empire: The Era of Territorial and Political Expansion

The question of economic justice for Black Americans continues to be the subject of contentious political debate. Here, Michael K. Brown examines the meaning of racial equality during three transformative periods when economic opportunity appeared to be a real possibility: Reconstruction, the New Deal, and the Great Society. Political leaders who believed slavery and Jim Crow degraded Black people enacted policies to rehabilitate formerly subjugated individuals. Black Americans, on the other hand, repudiated the idea that they were damaged people in need of repair. Repeatedly, Black people’s vision of economic justice was based on antiprivilege egalitarianism, the idea that a just restitution for their oppression required abolishing the political and legal privileges whites had acquired. Black opposition reveals what was at stake at each historical moment and what might constitute economic justice in the twenty-first century. &nbsp;

Histories of the Modern Nations

This latest addition to the Histories of the Modern Nations series explores the complex and diverse history of the United States from the nation's precolonial origins to the present day. Supported by the most up-to-date historiography, this book highlights America's diverse populations and the myriad struggles over time that many, including millions of Indigenous peoples and African Americans, have historically faced in a country where freedom and opportunity have been promised, but not always delivered, to all Americans. From before the time of Christopher Columbus to the presidency of Donald J. Trump, the author introduces readers to the people, events, and ideas that have for more than two centuries shaped the story of America both at home and abroad.
