Overview

In the summer of 2019, the New York Times rolled out a series of essays dubbed the 1619 Project that constituted an ambitious attack on the traditional view of American history and a rallying cry for a radical new philosophy of the Progressive New Left. In this collection of eleven provocative and powerfully argued essays, Stephen Vicchio (Ronald Reagan's Religious Beliefs) reveals the dangerous ideology behind this New Left movement--led by the Biden administration and others like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cory Booker, and Elizabeth Warren--on a variety of fronts, including: - The Defund the Police movement - The crisis at the southern border - Big Tech and censorship - The rise of a new Marxism - The problems of hate crimes and hate speech Spanning the personal, the political, and the philosophical, The 1618 Project exposes the deep corruption of Progressive New Left thinking and sounds a clarion call for a return to sanity before this radical movement sparks a second Civil War.

Reviews

"""Stephen Vicchio has long been a courageous individual, unflinching and unafraid of independent thought, the truth, and rattling a few cages among progressives, especially in the academic asylum. I admire his bold and clever insights and writing. In this book, smartly taking us before 1619, Vicchio once again shows why he's worth reading."" -Paul Kengor, PhD, professor of political science at Grove City College in Pennsylvania and editor of The American Spectator ""Steve Vicchio and I grew up as friends in Baltimore's Yale Heights neighborhood, in the same block of row houses, in the '50s and '60s. The values we learned from our parents and neighbors in this urban, blue-collar community served us well over the years, and are reflected in Steve's writings. Today, however, these values are under often violent attack, an attack really on our country's true foundations. If anyone is looking for the correct way forward, >The 1618 Project is what they need."" -Ambassador John Bolton, former national security advisor and US representative to the United Nations, author of Surrender Is Not an Option and The Room Where It Happened"
