This book aims to discuss these chronicles and highlight the intolerance hidden behind words of righteousness and blind trust, as if such is the norm. To our misfortune, we naively think that bigoted ideas are not a thing we could become afflicted with, but they are antiques from the past and still possess many hundreds of people. Discipline is necessary to attempt to be rid of these ideas. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 208 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 May 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe United States of America is often referred to as The Melting Pot, The Land of The Free, and The Land of Opportunity, reflecting its perceived freedom and open-armed welcome. However, the chronicles of history do not fully support this image. These historical events have often been overlooked in modernist literary criticism, despite their existence in the record. This book seeks to discuss these chronicles, revealing the deep-rooted racism and xenophobia embedded in both fictional and real personas, whether they be characters, writers, legislators, or ordinary people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the main chapters, literary works are analyzed to expose the intolerance concealed behind words of righteousness and blind trust, as if such behavior is the norm. While history is taught, it is not thoroughly examined. Unfortunately, we tend to believe that bigoted ideas are a thing of the past, relics from a bygone era. However, these ideas still possess many individuals and continue to surround us. Given the minimal change we have witnessed, it becomes evident that discipline is necessary to genuinely strive to eradicate these ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 403g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367689100\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wisam Abughosh Chaleila","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44278235005178,"sku":"9780367689100","price":40.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1686329667493_book.jpg?v=1686655871","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/racism-and-xenophobia-in-early-twentiethcentury-american-fiction-when-a-house-is-not-a-home-9780367689100","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
