Resurrecting the Culture of Americanism
The new book by author Joseph Keenan on the American History you never knew
Too many people are confused about their present culture and government, and what they stand for. Ignorance about the birth of our country and its impact on American citizens and culture is mainly caused by the general failure of our educational system, immigration problems, historical amnesia, social media, cell phones, and TV. Social media on cell phones can be addictive, altering our perception of reality and changing our cultural values. A broad cluelessness also exists about how the story of America’s creation has been deliberately manipulated for contemporary political purposes, contrary to the views of our Founders. Present political arrangements seek to remake or obliterate certain parts of the American past, especially in academia, politics, and journalism. Some of these people believe that the birth of America is morally troublesome or has little relevance for us today. It’s time to set the record straight about our heritage and the unique freedoms we possess, individually and as the world's most exceptional nation.
A very brief review of our colonization will set the stage. In the 1600’s and 1700’s, Europeans came to North America looking for religious freedom, economic opportunities, and political liberty...
These men tie together many important people and events, helping us better understand our history and our American Culture derived from our Founding Fathers. These men are portrayed in brief biographies to present, overall, a composite of the early leaders, their reasons, and actions in forming a new nation.
