• Summary:"America Redux explores the themes that create our shared sense of American identity and interrogates the myths we've been telling ourselves for centuries. With iconic American catchphrases as chapter titles, these twenty-one visual stories illuminate the astonishing, unexpected, sometimes darker sides of history that reverberate in our society to this very day--from the role of celebrity in immigration policy to the influence of one small group of white women on education to the effects of 'progress' on housing and the environment, to the inspiring force of collective action and mutual aid across decades and among diverse groups."--Front cover flap.
  
• Notes:"Fully illustrated with collaged archival photographs, maps, documents, graphic elements, and handwritten text"--Front cover flap.
  Includes bibliographical references (pages 276-289) and index.

• Contents:Preface
  The good old days
  Let freedom ring
  Spreading democracy
  A nation of immigrants
  Traditional family values
  One nation under God
  Home of the brave
  Give me liberty
  Good guy with a gun
  A new world
  This land is your land
  A car in every garage
  White picket fences
  Wish you were here
  As American as
  The old ballgame
  Down on the farm
  Made in America
  Streets paved with gold
  Nose to the grindstone
  We the people.
