Tim Scott, an African-American US senator, and Trey Gowdy, a white US congressman, won’t allow racial lines to divide them. They work together, eat meals together, campaign together, and make decisions together. Yet in the fall of 2010 - as two brand-new members of the US House of Representatives - they did not even know each other. Their story as politicians and friends began the moment they met and is a model for others seeking true reconciliation.

Christian Bennike – født i 1986 – er barn af en optimistisk og tryg tid med en naiv tro på fremskridtet og på fornuftens uovervindelige kraft. I bogen bevidner han det skift, som har fundet sted i Vesten og i Danmark: fra optimismen fra midten af 1990’erne over forceret exces i 00’erne og eskalerende utryghed og politisk opbrud i 10’erne til nu 20’ernes radikale fortløbende kriser: klima-, finans- og energikrise, Brexit og Trump, pandemi og krig i Europa. Kriserne har ændret vores blik på politik, etik og økonomi – og på os selv.

In 2016, many Christian leaders opposed candidate Donald Trump. He was a social liberal, and his vulgarity, divorces, affairs, and scandals made it impossible for him to defend Christian values in public life. Or so they thought.
