ePub Holocaust Denial as an International Movement by Stephen E Atkins in History

Description

Upon its first publication; A Different Mirror was hailed by critics and academics everywhere as a dramatic new retelling of our nation's past. Beginning with the colonization of the New World; it recounted the history of America in the voice of the non-Anglo peoples of the United States--Native Americans; African Americans; Jews; Irish Americans; Asian Americans; Latinos; and others--groups who helped create this country's rich mosaic culture.Now; Ronald Takaki has revised his landmark work and made it even more relevant and important. Among the new additions to the book are:--The role of black soldiers in preserving the Union--The history of Chinese Americans from 1900-1941--An investigation into the hot-button issue of "illegal" immigrants from Mexico--A look at the sudden visibility of Muslim refugees from Afghanistan.This new edition of A Different Mirror is a remarkable achievement that grapples with the raw truth of American history and examines the ultimate question of what it means to be an American.
