À propos de cet audio
How did a libertine who lacks even the most basic knowledge of the Christian faith win 81 percent of the white evangelical vote in 2016? And why have white evangelicals become a presidential reprobate's staunchest supporters? These are among the questions acclaimed historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez asks in Jesus and John Wayne, which explains how white evangelicals have brought us to our fractured political moment.
Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping account of the last 75 years of white evangelicalism, showing how American evangelicals have worked for decades to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism. Evangelical popular culture is teeming with muscular heroes - mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of "Christian America." Chief among these evangelical legends is John Wayne, an icon of a lost time when men were uncowed by political correctness, unafraid to tell it like it was, and did what needed to be done.
A much-needed reexamination, Jesus and John Wayne explains why evangelicals have rallied behind the least-Christian president in American history and how they have transformed their faith in the process, with enduring consequences for all of us.

Zero day: a software bug that allows a hacker to break into your devices and move around undetected. One of the most coveted tools in a spy's arsenal, a zero day has the power to silently spy on your iPhone, dismantle the safety controls at a chemical plant, alter an election and shut down the electric grid (just ask Ukraine). For decades, under cover of classification levels and non-disclosure agreements, the United States government became the world’s dominant hoarder of zero days.

First published in Portuguese in 1968, Pedagogy of the Oppressed was translated and published in English in 1970. Paulo Freire's work has helped to empower countless people throughout the world and has taken on special urgency in the United States and Western Europe, where the creation of a permanent underclass among the underprivileged and minorities in cities and urban centers is ongoing. This 50th anniversary edition includes an updated introduction by Donaldo Macedo, a new afterword by Ira Shor, and many inspirational interviews.

Paige Layle was normal. She lived in the countryside with her mom, dad, and brother Graham. She went to school, hung out with friends, and all the while everything seemed so much harder than it needed to be. A break in routine threw off the whole day. If her teacher couldn't answer “why” in class, she dissolved into tears, unable to articulate her own confusion or explain her lack of control.

Whit Fraser delivers a smart, touching and astute living history of five decades that transformed the North, a span he witnessed first as a longtime CBC reporter and then through his friendships and his work with Dene and Inuit activists and leaders. Whit had a front-row seat at the MacKenzie Valley Pipeline inquiry, the constitutional conferences and the land-claims negotiations that successfully reshaped the North. His vivid portraits of groundbreakers bring home their truly historic achievements, but they also give us a privileged glimpse of who they are, and who Whit Fraser is.

Originally published in 1876, General Henry M. Robert's guide to smooth, orderly, and fairly conducted meetings has sold over six million copies in eleven editions. Robert's Rules of Order is the book on parliamentary proceedings, yet those not well versed on what has now become a rather thick document can find themselves lost—and delayed—while trying to locate the most important rules. The solution? Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief.

Elinor Cleghorn became an unwell woman 10 years ago. She was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease after a long period of being told her symptoms were anything from psychosomatic to a possible pregnancy. As Elinor learned to live with her unpredictable disease, she turned to history for answers, and found an enraging legacy of suffering, mystification, and misdiagnosis. In Unwell Women, Elinor Cleghorn traces the almost unbelievable history of how medicine has failed women by treating their bodies as alien and other, often to perilous effect.

Amazing look at evangelical Christian history.
Really great book. Well with the listen. Sadly, the cadence of the reader is really off. The emphasis in almost every sentence feels off. And makes an amazing book harder to listen to.

This is one of the most important books you’ll read. Especially if you grew up in church, but even if you didn’t and you wonder what makes church people do shitty things like support Trump.

Better understanding of how evangelicals accept the vile hypocrisy and conman tactics of their selfish leaders.
As a young boy 50 years ago, while flipping TV stations I would stop to watch Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, Jim and Tammy Baker, Jerry Falwell and a few others. I always felt a pit in my stomach observing their smarmy pitch to seemingly millions of followers. Why and how could so many people be taken in by these slick, smooth talking charlatans was beyond my understanding until this week. Evangelicals have devolved into a cult and can blindly justify their support of an antichrist selfish buffoon who couldn't care less about anyone. How pathetic!
As a Canadian I shudder to think of the widespread damage to America, its political system, the environment, its international reputation and the support for struggling Ukraine will be inflicted if Trump is elected.
After ready Jesus and John Wayne, many questions were answered. The reader's cadence was appropriate for an audiobook trying to share a tragic slow motion train wreck history and not seem biased.

WWJD? Probably Not This ....
"Jesus and John Wayne" was both enlightening and deeply troubling.
This was a meticulously researched book, and goodness, I had no idea that there were people (20%+ of the US population) that have been shaped less by the compassionate teachings of Jesus and more by a muscular, authoritarian ideal of masculinity— epitomized by figures like John Wayne, or Mel Gibson's Braveheart. And this version of faith is "patriotic", glorifies authorised violence, and eshews compassion to refugees; being so patriarchial is predjudiced toward woman. Plus racist, the idea was explored that so many are home schooled as a way to combat the desegregation of schools. It really is toxic masculinity distorted by religion.
So many passing facts and figures. Some just leap out. For example there is a 100 student College (that were all previously home schooled) and the graduates of that College comprised of 7% of the interns in the White House.
At the end, (this book was published in 2020) it shows how the White Evangelicals (or at least 80%+) voted for Trump.

Essential Insight
Anyone who is baffled, worried, angry, hopeless, scared etc about the state of politics in this country MUST read this book. Kristen Kobes du Mez has given us a detailed chronology of the Evangelical movement with all of the relevant players, their ideology and hypocrasies; their fight to maintain and spread their corrupt patriarchal family values and the lasting damage their manical expression of christian male machismo has done. This book has given me tremendous insight on Americas' "inner struggle": (1 step forward, 2 steps back ) And as a 70 year old American woman, it has also given me a new understanding of myself. Thank you Thank you

A really great perspective
This book was so informative & I found it really intriguing to know how the North American church ended up so toxic. You can love Jesus & still hate how people are gatekeeping this religion. Definitely time for the church to start looking inwards

Worth the read in order to understand the whole Trump thing. Sad commentary on white evangelicalism but understanding the history hopefully will raise awareness amongst the church at wide.

The dangers of religion and religionists
This book is well-written and is well read by the narrator. It lays out the history of the movement that has managed to fool itself and many Americans that god exists for them. It also presents the best rationale for the election of an idiot like Donald Trump that I have yet read.
