Amazon.com description: Product Description: Conservative Resurgence from the John Birch Society to the Promise Keepers Foreword by Wilma Mankiller
"A personal, historical, and well-researched tour through the parallel universe of right-wing America."*
In this provocative book, Jean Hardisty details the formation of right-wing movements in opposition to the struggle for expansion of rights for women, people of color, and lesbians and gays. Her own experiences spanning three decades as both an activist and observer undergird her analysis in riveting ways. We see her in a stadium filled with Promise Keepers, watching thousands of men pledge in unison to take control of their families, with a mixture of awe, fear, and a lucid understanding of what draws people to such charismatic events.
"If you have time for only one book about the ultra-conservative resurgence, this is it."â*Gloria Steinem
"A thoughtful and provocative look at the right wing in the United States, replacing simple condemnation with sober analysis. It raises the troubling question: what can we learn from people we fear."âHoward Zinn, author of A People's History of the United States
"Mobilizing Resentment provides a wealth of information for anyone interested in how to refocus the energy and idealism of the progressive movement on the building of institutions that are relevant to the lives of most Americans."âWilma Mankiller, from the Foreword
