Will America make it beyond its 250th anniversary, and if so, what kind of country will exist in the aftermath of the self-destructive chaos unleashed by Donald Trump, the avatar of our nation’s unexamined sins? These are the existential and necessary questions Professor Eddie Glaude asks in his forthcoming book, America, U.S.A.: How Race Shadows the Nation's Anniversaries. Glaude examines how America reproduces comforting myths rooted in white supremacy that reinforce its own alleged greatness while refusing to acknowledge its own discrepancies and hypocrisy.
