Democracy Matters: Winning the Fight Against Imperialism Audiobook
Shared by:mber
Cornel West
A sequel to 1993’s Race Matters, West’s latest aims to “look unflinchingly at the waning of democratic energies and practices in our present age of American empire.” Such orotund language pervades the book, which expands philosophically on extant critiques but offers little practical or programmatic advice. American democracy, argues West, is threatened by free market fundamentalism, aggressive militarism and escalating authoritarianism. He criticizes Republicans as evangelical nihilists driven by delusions of American domination, Democrats (including John Kerry) as paternalistic nihilists accepting a corrupt system and most news organizations as sentimental nihilists sacrificing truth for distraction. With intermittent journeys through Tocqueville, Melville, King, Emerson, Twain and Morrison, among others, he lingers in the Middle East (supporting security for Israel and freedom for Palestinians), and calls fiercely for an American Christianity that evokes the Christian ideals of love and justice, and that advocates deeper engagement with youth culture—which leads to a nine-page account of how his outreach led to a clash with Harvard president Larry Summers and his departure for Princeton. Echoing his 1993 demand for improvisational “jazz freedom fighter[s],” West here invokes the blues, which “forge a mature hope that fortifies us on the slippery tightrope of Socratic questioning and prophetic witness in imperial America.”

A real nut job. Biased, at times racist and disjointed
