Book Summary
America, Amerikkka traces the historical and ideological patterns of the U.S. American view of themselves as an elect nation inhabiting a "promised land" and enjoying a uniquely favored relation with God and a mission to spread "redemption" qua "democracy" throughout the world. This view of unique election has been coupled with racial exclusivism privileging and marginalizing non-whites as citizens of the nation.
