End of days : Ruby Ridge, the Apocalypse, and the unmaking of America /

Jennings, Chris, 1982-,


Prologue: The end -- Introduction: America apocalypse -- Part I: Level ground. Home place ; The turn ; Have you heard the bad news? ; The thrilling doctrine ; Going under on the Plains ; Unchurched ; Things unseen -- Part II: Across the great divide. Away! ; Midnight in America ; Give me death ; Identity politics ; Small-town talk ; The order ; So much for the stud finder ; Two chainsaws -- Part III: Tribulation. Go to hell ; A time of great depression ; Time has turned against us ; Ambush ; Lamentation on high place ; Siege ; A whimper, not a bang -- Epilogue: Slipping into the future. "On August 21, 1992, shots rang out while federal agents were surveilling a cabin in Boundary County, Idaho as part of an operation to arrest Randy Weaver--a reclusive, mountain-dwelling survivalist--for failure to appear in court on a gun charge. When Weaver finally surrendered to the authorities eleven days later, his wife, son, and dog lay dead, as did a US Marshal. Ever since, America has been trying to make sense of what happened on Ruby Ridge. Today, the question could not be more urgent, as the shock waves from Ruby Ridge have amplified and compounded, cracking the very foundations of our democracy. In End of Days, Chris Jennings explains the significance of this historic siege by setting the story of the Weaver family within the long history of apocalyptic Christianity in the United States, illuminating the ways in which that faith has gradually transformed the nation. The strain of doomsday Christianity that gripped the Weavers, he shows, was grounded in a particular reading of biblical prophecy that can be traced back to the 1870s and up through the twentieth-century rise of Christian fundamentalism to the right-wing conspiracism that now defines American society and politics. The events at Ruby Ridge acted as an accelerant for this spreading worldview, and are essential to understanding the crisis that our nation confronts today." --

Hazel has always been the more adventurous one of their duo, and she seems at peace with all that she's squeezed out of her long life. Yet Joy realizes she can't say the same. Determined to live boldly and make the most of the time that she and Hazel have left together, Joy steps outside of her comfort zone-and into a bit of trouble. But as her foray into rule-breaking escalates into committing petty crime, Joy must consider what kind of legacy she wants to leave behind, and whether there's a way for her to embrace the liberation that "Bad Joy" offers without losing all that she holds dear. Is it ever too late to become who we're meant to be? With laugh-out-loud hijnks and emotional heft, Good Joy, Bad Joy is a heartwarming and wise celebration of the choices we make, the friendships we cherish, and the lengths we go for love"-- Provided by publisher.
