bc-size-small bc-color-base"> <p>The Vision of the Anointed is a devastating critique of the mindset behind the failed social policies of the past thirty years. Thomas Sowell sees what has happened not as a series of isolated mistakes, but as a logical consequence of a vision whose defects have led to disasters in education, crime, family disintegration, and other social pathology. In this book, "politically correct" theory is repeatedly confronted with facts-and sharp contradictions between the two are explained in terms of a whole set of self-congratulatory assumptions held by political and intellectual elites.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro"

Thomas Sowell sees what has happened not as a series of isolated mistakes, but as a logical consequence of a vision whose defects have led to disasters in education, crime, family disintegration, and other social pathology. In this book, "politically correct" theory is repeatedly confronted with facts-and sharp contradictions between the two are explained in terms of a whole set of self-congratulatory assumptions held by political and intellectual elites.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro"

In doing so, they focus on only a piece of the issue and lose touch with the larger picture. Now Thomas Sowell offers a sweeping historical and global look at a large number of migrations over a long period of time. <i>Migrations and Cultures</i> shows the persistence of cultural traits in particular racial and ethnic groups. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro" >

the context of <i>The Vision of the Anointed</i>. Sowell, one of America’s most celebrated public intellectuals, describes in concrete detail how knowledge is shared and disseminated throughout modern society.

often the opposite of what is widely believed.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item

Facing chronic economic insecurity, a popular culture that reflects the nation's diverse cultural reality, and a future in which they will no longer constitute the majority of the population, and with a black president in the White House, whites are growing anxious. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li

Now, he adds, America has caught up with Europe on the great rush to self-destruction. What will a world without American leadership look like? It won’t be pretty—not for you and not for your children. America’s decline won’t be gradual, like an aging Europe sipping espresso at a café until extinction.

Now, he adds, America has caught up with Europe on the great rush to self-destruction. What will a world without American leadership look like? It won’t be pretty—not for you and not for your children. America’s decline won’t be gradual, like an aging Europe sipping espresso at a café until extinction. No, America’s decline will be a wrenching affair marked by violence and possibly secession. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list

In <i>Please Stop Helping Us</i>, Jason L. Riley examines how well-intentioned welfare programs are in fact holding Black Americans back.

Affirmative action in higher education is intended to address past discrimination, but the result is fewer Black college graduates than would otherwise exist.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro" > <div class="bc-review-stars"> <span class="full-review-star"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-base bc-icon-star-empty-s2 bc-icon-star-empty bc-icon-size-small bc-color-base" > </i> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-progress bc-icon-star-fill-s2 bc-icon-star-fill bc-icon-size-small bc-color-progress" > </i> </span> <span class="full-review-star"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-base bc-icon-star-empty-s2 bc-icon-star-empty bc-icon-size-small bc-color-base" > </i> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-progress bc-icon-star-fill-s2 bc-icon-star-fill bc-icon-size-small bc-color-progress" > </i> </span> <span class="full-review-star"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-base bc-icon-star-empty-s2 bc-icon-star-empty bc-icon-size-small bc-color-base" > </i> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-progress bc-icon-star-fill-s2 bc-icon-star-fill bc-icon-size-small bc-color-progress" > </i> </span> <span class="full-review-star"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-base bc-icon-star-empty-s2 bc-icon-star-empty bc-icon-size-small bc-color-base" > </i> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-progress bc-icon-star-fill-s2 bc-icon-star-fill bc-icon-size-small bc-color-progress" > </i> </span> <span class="full-review-star"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-base bc-icon-star-empty-s2 bc-icon-star-empty bc-icon-size-small bc-color-base" > </i> <i aria-hidden="true" class="bc-icon bc-icon-fill-progress bc-icon-star-fill-s2 bc-icon-star-fill bc-icon-size-small bc-color-progress" > </i> </span> </div> <span class="bc-text bc-pub-offscreen" >5 out of 5 stars</span> </li> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro" > <h2 class="bc-heading bc-color-base bc-size-base bc-text-bold bc-text-quote" > Required reading </h2> </li> <li class="bc-list-item bc-size-mini bc-color-secondary" > By <span class="bc-text bc-color-base" >Ken Larsen</span> on 02-15-15 </li> </ul> </span> </div> </div> <p class="bc-text oneLine bc-spacing-s0_5 bc-spacing-top-none bc-text-left bc-size-callout bc-color-carbon65%"> By: <a class="bc-link bc-color-link" tabindex="0" href="/search?searchAuthor=Jason+L.+Riley&ref_pageloadid=8f0pXj6APstIwDw8&pf_rd_p=3c14cb09-3443-47f2-8da7-1f77d63f593f&pf_rd_r=C8W1HW1VWVK8EYG09CR9&plink=FtDU9u8NLOfvkjJi&pageLoadId=bz48rg115m3lt4aP&creativeId=bd3b6000-59ff-40b4-96df-c937d020fe21&ref=a_pd_Is-Rea_c141_adblp13ntcdx_2_2_1">Jason L.

At one end of the rope are those who think America is a secular nation; at the other end are those who believe religion is at the root of our country's foundation. In this audio release of the thought-provoking <i>America's Real War</i>, renowned leader and speaker Rabbi Daniel Lapin encourages America to reembrace the Judeo-Christian values on which our nation was founded and logically demonstrates why those values are crucial to America's strength in the new millennium. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul

From India to Turkey and from Poland to the United States, authoritarian populists have seized power. As a result democracy itself may now be at risk. Two core components of liberal democracy - individual rights and the popular will - are at war with each other. As the role of money in politics soared and important issues were taken out of public contestation, a system of "rights without democracy" took hold. Populists who rail against this say they want to return power to the people. But in practice they create a system of "democracy without rights." </p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li

It is not a comforting book but a book about disturbing and dangerous trends. <i>The Quest for Cosmic Justice</i> shows how confused conceptions of justice end up promoting injustice, how confused conceptions of equality end up promoting inequality, and how the tyranny of social visions prevents many people from confronting the actual consequences of their own beliefs and policies. </p> <div

bc-size-small bc-color-base"> <p>The Vision of the Anointed is a devastating critique of the mindset behind the failed social policies of the past thirty years. Thomas Sowell sees what has happened not as a series of isolated mistakes, but as a logical consequence of a vision whose defects have led to disasters in education, crime, family disintegration, and other social pathology. In this book, "politically correct" theory is repeatedly confronted with facts-and sharp contradictions between the two are explained in terms of a whole set of self-congratulatory assumptions held by political and intellectual elites.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro"

the will of the people. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro" > <div

bc-size-small bc-color-base"> <p>The Vision of the Anointed is a devastating critique of the mindset behind the failed social policies of the past thirty years. Thomas Sowell sees what has happened not as a series of isolated mistakes, but as a logical consequence of a vision whose defects have led to disasters in education, crime, family disintegration, and other social pathology. In this book, "politically correct" theory is repeatedly confronted with facts-and sharp contradictions between the two are explained in terms of a whole set of self-congratulatory assumptions held by political and intellectual elites.</p> </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li class="bc-list-item bc-spacing-micro"

The role of intellectuals in racial strife is explored in an international context that puts the American experience in a wholly new light. The book explores the incentives, the visions, and the rationales that drive intellectuals at the highest levels to conclusions that have often turned out to be counterproductive and even disastrous, not only for particular racial or ethnic groups but for societies as a whole. </p> <div class="bc-divider bc-spacing-small bc-divider-secondary"> </div> <span> <ul class="bc-list bc-list-nostyle"> <li
