Beschreibung

History is a story. It is storytelling. History is the selection of facts, placed in a specific order, to result in a specific conclusion. It's the choice of facts, the prioritization of facts, and the ignoring or deprioritization of facts, that create the narrative of history. Racial Narratives and the Development of Trumpism: The Whitewashing of the American Story explores how the White social conservative worldview narrates the American story and through that worldview intentionally whitewashes the American story of specific historical events and the meaning attached to them. Since America is defined by ideas and not ethnicity, it matters what narratives of America prevail in the American political consciousness that are accepted, supported, and defended. Racial Narratives and the Development of Trumpism uses original speeches and writings of White social conservative and White populist leaders, from Thomas Jefferson to Tucker Carlson to explore how this worldview narrative of American history developed over the past two centuries. Racial Narratives and the Development of Trumpism explores how the process of fact selection, prioritization, and development of White social conservative rhetoric of the American story has defined Republican Party politics and policies, which culminated in the rise of Donald Trump and Trumpism within the American political landscape both before and after the election of President Obama in 2008.
