Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A CLEAR-EYED, COGENT CLARION CALL FOR ENDING THE DIVISIVE CLASS WARS THAT THREATEN THE AMERICAN MIDDLE-CLASS DREAM In What's the Matter with White People? Walsh argues that the biggest divide in America today is based not on party or ideology but on two competing explanations for why middle-class stability has been shaken since the 1970s. One side sees an America that has spent the last forty years bankrupting the country by providing benefits for the underachieving, the immoral, and the undeserving--no matter the cost to the majority of Americans. The other side sees an America that has spent the last forty years catering to the wealthy while allowing only a nominal measure of progress for the downtrodden. Using her extended Irish-Catholic working-class family as a case in point and explaining her own political coming-of-age, Walsh shows how liberals unwittingly collaborated in the us versus them narrative and how the GOP's renewed culture war now scapegoats segments of its own white demographic. Part memoir, part political history, What's the Matter with White People? is essential reading to combat political and cultural polarization and to build a more just and prosperous multiracial America in the years to come. WITH A NEW AFTERWORD.…

I just couldn't put it down Nancy Christofferson, Marketing ManagerJim Akers does an extraordinary job in finding an appropriate way to influence and help his audience. I say appropriate because I am usually a bit wary of motivational texts and speeches. I often feel like they lack real substance and lasting inspiration. Rather than giving the reader a short-lived sense of purpose or excitement, Tape Breakers offers real wisdom. The principles and advice in the book prompt readers to evaluate their lives regardless of where they are in their own races. Jim leads readers to a place of understanding and clarity, empowering them to lead impactful lives.-Ben Reidy, Student, University of WashingtonTape Breakers is one of the most compelling and impactful (not to steal a phrase from you) reads I have enjoyed in recent times.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. I recently had the privilege of speaking to our church audience about revival with 2 Chronicles 7:14 as the backdrop. The sacred text says, "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." Note that it does not say, "If Hollywood or Washington or the media turns to God," but "if My people" turn. What's happening in America is called psychological warfare. The goal of some is to elevate stress to the point of exhaustion and then fuel fear so that people give up their rights. To win the psychological battle (the battle of the mind), one must saturate their mind in the Word and ways of God. We need to look up at God and not look around at what is going on. America's heart needs to break so that deep repentance takes place.…
