Tom Joscelyn and Bill Kristol examine the cultural conflicts at the heart of the American experiment. They discuss why the right’s cultural dominance is weaker than it appears, relying increasingly on political power to achieve cultural ends. Plus: Trump’s failed attempt to rebrand the 250th anniversary of American independence, white nationalism’s pervasive influence on the right, and why Christian nationalism and authoritarianism are fundamentally dependent on cultural homogeneity. Finally, what the multicultural vision must do to resist—and why it’s already winning in the places that matter most.
