Corey Robin Interview of Moustafa Bayoumi, Author of “This Muslim American Life”

I've reviewed an earlier book by Moustafa Bayoumi, and I've followed Corey Robin's blog for a couple of years now. Also of note is Professor Robin's strong support of Steven Salaita.

Salon.com published Professor Robin's interview of Moustafa Bayoumi on December 27, 2015.

Get the book at an independent bookstore or from a library near you.

Favorite Quote: The Attorney-General in Charles Dickens's "A Tale of Two Cities"

The full text of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities is available online. I listened to an unabridged performance. The book should also be in your local library.

Imagine Sam Waterston of Law & Order, who as Manhattan's District Attorney wanted perps to do hard time for jaywalking, playing the role of Attorney-General prosecuting Charles Darnay for treason against the "serene, illustrious, excellent and so forth, prince, our Lord the King!"

Review: Christian Nation by Frederic C Rich

Frederic C. Rich retired from one of the United States's largest law firms. He also found time to write a speculative fiction (by now, nearly alternative history) novel set in our time about the takeover, via election, of the United States by Christian dominionists and reconstructionists.

The author maintains a website with more information about the book and a list of questions for discussion. You can search for the book at your local independent book store or at a library near you.
