Woodson, Sr.; Biographies of Contributing Authors; Endnotes and Acknowledgments. " "An indispensable corrective to the falsified version of black history presented by The 1619 Project, radical activists, and money-hungry "diversity consultants." In the rush to redefine the place of black Americans in contemporary society, many radical activists and academics have mounted a campaign to destroy traditional American history and replace it with a politicized version that few would recognize. According to the new radical orthodoxy, the United States was founded as a racist nation -- and everything that has happened throughout our history must be viewed through the lens of the systemic oppression of black people. Rejecting this false narrative, a collection of the most prominent and respected black scholars and thinkers has come together to correct the record and tell the true story of black Americans in all its complexity, diversity of experience, and poignancy. Collectively, they paint a vivid picture of black people living the grand American experience, however bumpy the road may be along the way. But rather than a people apart, blacks are woven into the united whole that makes this nation unique in history." -- from the rear outer jacket. "1776 Unites represents a nonpartisan and intellectually diverse alliance of writers, thinkers, and activists focused on solutions to our country's greatest challenges in education, culture, and upward mobility. We acknowledge that racial discrimination exists - and work toward diminishing it. But we dissent from contemporary groupthink and rhetoric about race, class, and American history that defames our national heritage, divides our people, and instills helplessness among those who already hold within themselves the grit and resilience to better their lot in life. 1776 Unites maintains a special focus on voices in the black community who celebrate black excellence, reject victimhood culture and showcase the millions of black Americans who have prospered by embracing the founding ideals of America. We are intellectuals, journalists, entrepreneurs, and grassroots activists, celebrating the progress America has made, the resilience of its people, and our future together. We seek decisive action in restoring our people's confidence and advancing the cause of actual justice in the face of hostile messages that degrade the spiritual, moral, and political foundations of our nation." -- from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Community activist Robert L. "Bob" Woodson has devoted his career to helping low-income people transcend their impoverished conditions.

"During our public years, especially when we lived in the White House, Kennebunkport truly became our "anchor to windward." It was where we came to escape the worries of the world, to recharge our batteries and restore our soul. It's where our children and grandchildren and now great "grands" will come to visit and to do the same." - from the Foreword by George H.W. and Barbara Bush, and the rear outer jacket. " "Before you take up the extraordinary work that follows, it might be useful to think for just a moment about what the publication of a history like this means - to the people of Kennebunkport, but also to the rest of us who live, unfortunately, somewhere else." So begins the Preface by Richard D'Abate, director emeritus of the Maine Historical Society, praising Joyce Butler's landmark book on this most historic and quintessential coastal Maine town. Perhaps best known as the summer home of U.S. President George H.W. Bush, Kennebunkport also has a long and stories history as a shipbuilding and commercial fishing hub and a place where culture and the arts flourished in the homes of such famous writers and artists as Booth Tarkington and Abbott Graves. In this first volume, Butler paints a fascinating portrait of the town's first 320 years, from 1603 to 1923, bringing to life the many colorful characters, buildings, and institutions that form the basis of this wonderful town as we know it today." - from the inner front jacket flap.
