The Disuniting of America: Reflections on a Multicultural SocietyThe classic image of the American nation a melting pot in which differences of race, wealth, religion, and nationality are submerged in democracy is being replaced by an orthodoxy that celebrates difference and abandons assimilation. While this upsurge in ethnic awareness has had many healthy consequences in a nation shamed by a history of prejudice, the cult of ethnicity, if pressed too far, threatens to fragment American society to a dangerous

The classic image of the American nation a melting pot in which differences of race, wealth, religion, and nationality are submerged in democracy is being replaced by an orthodoxy that celebrates difference and abandons assimilation. While this upsurge in ethnic awareness has had many healthy consequences in a nation shamed by a history of prejudice, the cult of ethnicity, if pressed too far, threatens to fragment American society to a dangerous degree. Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner in history and adviser to the Kennedy and other administrations, Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., is uniquely positioned to wave the caution flag in the race to a politics of identity. Using a broader canvas in this updated and expanded edition, he examines the international dimension and the lessons of one polyglot country after another tearing itself apart or on the brink of doing so: among them the former Yugoslavia, Nigeria, even Canada. Closer to home, he finds troubling new evidence that multiculturalism gone awry here in the United States threatens to do the same. "One of the most devastating and articulate attacks on multiculturalism yet to appear." Wall Street Journal "A brilliant book . . . we owe Arthur Schlesinger a great debt of gratitude." C. Vann Woodward, New Republic"

It really does the job!
Size: 8 Oz
This stuff actually works really well. It brought all my plastic back to life. And although I don't think it's designed to use on metal my toolbox is black and it looked faded and I did the toolbox with it and it looks brand new now. There's a die in this product that makes it last longer than most other products I believe. And if your plastics are really bad like some of mine were give it to treatments and you'll be amazed. You have to let it dry for a while it will be sticky depending on the climate for a day or so but it's pretty much dry it won't you know smudge or anything but it just feels sticky to the touch for a day or two. I've been through the car wash a few times since I treated it and it didn't hurt that new finished. I do recommend this product.

Excellent results, easy to use, impressed!
Size: 8 Oz, Size: 8 Oz
I used the glide coat ceramic sponge applicators (it’s what I had) and the absorption was perfect. Application on trim pieces was super easy. Had to get a little particular around my mirrors and window trim (I didn’t tape, oops) I used 4-5 throwaway microfiber towels to wipe excess. Super pleased with 1st coat, may go back for seconds on my tonneau. I left each section to cure for about 7 minutes then wiped with towel. Leaves a nice matte finish that pulls out the sparkles in my Raptor trim. No sticky residue leftover.
