Beschreibung

In "The Homes of the New World," Fredrika Bremer offers a vivid exploration of American society in the mid-19th century, intertwining her keen observations with rich descriptive narrative. Written during her travels through the United States, Bremer delves into the lives of various social classes and communities, detailing their domestic lives, cultural practices, and the evolving notion of the American dream. Her prose reflects a blend of romanticism and realism, capturing both the idyllic and the tumultuous aspects of life in the New World, serving as a pivotal commentary on the societal changes occurring during this dynamic period in history. Fredrika Bremer was a Swedish novelist and feminist, whose perceptive insights were shaped by her progressive views on gender roles and social equality. Bremer's own experiences navigating societal constraints as a woman led her to champion issues regarding women's rights and societal reform, influencing her lens as she examined American life. Her travels were not merely geographical but also a quest for understanding the cultural implications of the New World, allowing her to juxtapose European traditions with the burgeoning American identity. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, culture, or women's studies, offering a unique perspective on the intersections of gender, class, and societal values. Bremer's narrative is not only informative but evocative, inviting readers into a rich tapestry of experiences that continue to resonate in contemporary discussions about identity and community.

    Conspiracy theories, and particularly the belief that elements of the world are secretly controlled by individuals or groups, have been around for as long as people have lived in groups. Perhaps that’s inevitable - after all, those who are excluded from power are very likely to be inclined to see their position not as an outcome of their own choices or situation but because of the secret machinations of shadowy groups. One of the most widely discussed conspiracy theories concerns what has become known as the New World Order, a secret cabal that is said to have ambitions to become a form of World Government. 
    Part of the problem with trying to look objectively at any conspiracy theory and at the notion of the New World Order in particular is that some secret conspiracies do exist, and history tells us that these are often specifically intended to acquire power and wealth. But some conspiracy theories embrace extreme ideas such as the notion that the world is secretly ruled by reptilian creatures from another dimension, that certain minority groups have outsized power, and other farfetched concepts that have no basis in reality. Naturally, conspiracy theories work in part because it is now quite difficult to distinguish between what may be real conspiracies and downright bizarre notions. 
    Virtually universal access to the Internet in the 21st century has led to the widespread dissemination of strange theories that would previously have been known by only a handful of people. Some of the most widely discussed of these understandably seem crazy to many people. What does this say about the world in which we live? And where exactly did people get the idea that the planet is actually ruled by a secret cabal? In reality, the New World Order conspiracy has its roots in a much longer and more complex history than many people might immediately expect.

    Lincoln's connection to black history may go much further than his role in slavery. In the 2001 book 'Black People and Their Place in History', historian Leroy Vaughn, alleges that Lincoln’s father was African American and his mother had Ethiopian ethnicity, both of which may have explained his “very dark skin and coarse hair.” The fact is his rivals campaigned using propaganda that depicted Lincoln as “Abraham Africanus the First,” an African man.It is claimed that Abraham Lincoln, who became America’s 16th President in 1860, was a Melungeon; a person of European, African-American and Native American ancestry.But beyond even that thoughtful historical proposition the late scholar Lerone Bennet Jr. sees America's most beloved president in a very different light to how he has been portrayed throughout time. Bennet hit a nerve in his research and writing on Lincoln. His book, 'Forced into Glory: Abraham Lincoln's White Dream', questions Lincoln's role as the "Great Emancipator". The work was described by one reviewer as a "flawed mirror." It was further criticized by historians of the Civil War period as faulty.In his introduction, Bennett wrote:"The idea of the book is simple: Everything you think you know about Lincoln and race is wrong. Every schoolchild, for example, knows the story of "the great emancipator" who freed Negroes with a stroke of the pen out of the goodness of his heart. The real Lincoln ... was a conservative politician who said repeatedly that he believed in white supremacy. Not only that: He opposed the basic principle of the Emancipation Proclamation until his death and was literally forced – Count Adam Gurowski said he was literally whipped – "into the glory of having issued the Emancipation Proclamation," which Lincoln drafted in such a way that it did not in and of itself free a single slave."Bennett's critics, including historians as well as political scientists, believe he ignores Lincoln's political and moral growth during the course
