Media Reviews
Today we live in a world of Orwellian Newspeak, where diversity means uniformity and thought crimes abound. In a splendid series of essays by well-respected conservatives, Brad Watson exposes the hypocrisy of contemporary liberalism and its refusal to tolerate different beliefs. -- F.H. Buckley, Scalia Law School, author of The Republican Workers Party
This wonderful volume could not have come at a more opportune moment. Many people today (myself included) are confounded at how a public culture that - in theory -- is supremely committed to the values of "diversity" and individual autonomy, could be so intolerant in reality. Bradley Watson's authors solve that puzzle. They identify and describe the conformist tendencies in modern "diversity" ideology, and they do so from a nearly perfect range of perspectives. Out of Many is a tour de force, a series of spot-on analyses of the spirit of the age as it manifests itself on campus and in the public square, with superb essays on the American founding and the American tradition of public thought included to add for critical perspective. The book is not only for specialists and students, however. Any engaged American would profit by reading it. -- Gerard V. Bradley, Professor of Law, University of Notre Dame
“The Diverse Identities of America” are well on their way to replacing the United States. What will the completion of this cultural revolution mean for our country’s traditional political ideals, moral convictions and religious beliefs? Are there feasible counterrevolutionary strategies that might still avoid their erasure? In Diversity, Conformity and Conscience in Contemporary America some of the nation’s most far-seeing scholars grapple with these agonizing questions. -- Stephen H. Balch, Texas Tech University
