Jezebel’S War with America, May Be His Most Compelling You already know the culture is going crazy, and at a pace that seems impossible to comprehend. But why? What’s happening? The answer is in this book. I thank God that my friend Dr. Michael Brown has dared to say what needs saying. And I thank God for everyone who reads this vitally important explanation of where we are and what we can and must do about it. —Eric Metaxas Author, Bonhoeffer, Miracles, and Martin Luther Having personally known Dr. Michael Brown for about four decades as a mentor and dear friend, I wholeheart- edly commend this new book that brings you inspira- tion and revelation for these turbulent times! Read it and please encourage others to digest the rich insights Dr. Brown is bringing to us in this defining moment of America’s history. —Larry Tomczak Best-Selling Author and Cultural Commentator I have the utmost love and respect for Dr. Michael L. Brown. I believe I have read and reread almost all of his books. I must say, his new release, Jezebel’s War With America, may be his most compelling. In every chapter he enters indisputable evidence in high defi- nition that eliminates all doubt. He lays out his case as an accomplished prosecutor, and when he is done, we, the jury (reader), find Jezebel is indeed at war with America. —John Kilpatrick Senior Pastor, Church of His Presence Shortly before hearing about Dr. Michael Brown’s book on Jezebel, I heard God in my heart say, “Study again the story of Jezebel.” Jezebel is a spirit so strong, embodied in a woman in the era of the Old Testament, spoken of by Jesus, and mentioned in the book of Revelation as revisiting the earth. This is a heavy subject. It is a dangerous subject. It evokes a demonic response. It is one of hell’s heroes. As I read the manuscript of this book after being invited to write an endorsement, I was moved for days. I took an inventory of my own heart. The spirit of Jezebel is active in the earth today. It comes to intimidate, con- trol, and threaten. A study by George Barna reveals that 92 percent of pastors in America, when surveyed, stated that they say nothing in sermons about our greatest national issues. That sounds like the results of the intimidation of Jezebel. Since you have decided to read this book, get ready to be stirred. The spirit of Jezebel is back—and intends to shut up your voice of life, of freedom, of truth. The answer to overcoming this treacherous spirit is found in this book. It is timely, important, and anointed. —Pastor Mike Hayes Founding Pastor, Covenant Church American culture continues to change at rapid speed, with waves of social chaos and consternation forcing many Christians to wonder how we ended up in such a dire predicament. In Jezebel’s War With America my friend Michael L. Brown explores how spiritual elements are at play—powerful forces that can impact individuals, communities, and nations. Brown’s compelling theological view gives us all a great deal to consider when it comes to truly living our faith out more fully and paving a positive path forward. —Billy Hallowell Author, Fault Line and The Armageddon Code JEZEBEL’S WAR WITH AMERICA MICHAEL L.

In fact, about 70 percent of the book was written in a one-week period late in 2018 with the words burning inside me as I typed on my keyboard hour after hour, all day and all night. I felt fire in my heart, fire in my head, and fire in my hands. That suggests strongly to me that the message of this book is of great importance for our nation today, that the spiritual battle is real and intense, and that we are really dealing with demonic forces that want to destroy us. But it also means we can see great victory through the Word and Spirit, in Jesus’ name. XI JEZEBEL’S WAR WITH AMERICA In the summer of 2018 Pastor John Kilpatrick, who was the pastor during the Brownsville Revival and who now leads a church in Daphne, Alabama, ended a Sunday service with a call to pray for President Trump. He said Trump was under attack from witchcraft and from Jezebel, something that must have sounded very odd to many when the video went viral, much to Pastor Kilpatrick’s shock. Why so much atten- tion on this call for prayer? (I share more details about this in chapter 1.) I contacted him to encourage him for his stand, and he invited me to preach for him in October.

  • The Oxygen of Amplification Better Practices for Reporting on Extremists, Antagonists, and Manipulators Online
    The Oxygen of Amplification Better Practices for Reporting on Extremists, Antagonists, and Manipulators Online By Whitney Phillips EXECUTIVE SUMMARY MAPPING THE MEDIA ECOSYSTEM We live in a time where new forms of power are emerging, where social and digital media are being leveraged to reconfigure the information landscape. This new domain requires journalists to take what they know about abuses of power and media manipulation in traditional information ecosystems and apply that knowledge to networked actors, such as white nationalist networks online. These actors create new journalistic stumbling blocks that transcend attempts to manipulate reporters solely to spin a beneficial narrative – which reporters are trained to decode – and instead represent a larger effort focused on spreading hateful ideology and other false and misleading narratives, with news coverage itself harnessed to fuel hate, confusion, and discord. The choices reporters and editors make about what to cover and how to cover it play a key part in regulating the amount of oxygen supplied to the falsehoods, antagonisms, and manipulations that threaten to overrun the contemporary media ecosystem—and, simultaneously, threaten to undermine democratic discourse more broadly. This context demands that journalists and the newsrooms that support them examine with greater scrutiny how these actors and movements endeavor to subvert journalism norms, practices, and objectives. More importantly, journalists, editors, and publishers must determine how the journalistic rule set must be strengthened and fortified against this newest form of journalistic manipulation—in some cases through the rigorous upholding of long-standing journalistic principles, and in others, by recognizing which practices and structural limitations make reporters particularly vulnerable to manipulation.

FROM PANIC TO PITY: CIRCUITS AND CIRCULATIONS OF THE CONTEMPORARY ANTI-TRAFFICKING CRUSADE by JULIANA RAMÍREZ RODRÍGUEZ Under the Direction of Amira Jarmakani, PhD ABSTRACT The creation, implementation, and ratification of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA), as well as the growth of parallel private initiatives against human trafficking, have emerged from a neoliberal political agenda that focuses on redefinitions of labor, sexuality, securitization of humanitarian campaigns, and immigration policies. In this thesis, I explore some of the meanings and effects of those redefinitions by focusing on the affective registers of pity and panic in their ability to mobilize publics toward restrictive forms of assistance to real and imaginary victims of the so-called phenomenon of “modern-day slavery.” INDEX WORDS: Anti-trafficking crusade, Affect, Panic, Pity, Trafficking Victims Protection Act.

  • The Kids Are Alt-Right: the Intellectual Origins of the Alt-Right
    The Kids are Alt-Right: The Intellectual Origins of the Alt-Right ANDREW WILLIAM JONES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST 2019 ©Andrew William Jones, 2019 Abstract The electoral success and increased media presence of the Far-Right ideology known as the Alternative Right has catapulted the once marginal fringe movement into popular political discourse. The term Alternative Right is used in contrast to Alt-Right, which is a specific subsection of the broader Alt-Right who are associated with Richard Spencer. This dissertation examines the theories that make up the Alternative Right by addressing the question: “How have the divergent political theory traditions of the Alternative Right coalesced into a new reactionary political ideology?”The first half of the dissertation defines the Alternative Right and the historical context for the movement. The dissertation defines the Alternative Right by its axioms of the right to difference, the primacy of cultural metapolitics and hierarchical individualism. The second half examines the four major intellectual influences of the Alternative Right: The Techno-libertarians know as the Grey Tribe, NeoReactionary Thought, the European New Right and the American White Nationalists. The dissertation concludes that the divergent political theory of the Alternative Right is unified based on its shared reactionary values, its break from American liberal- conservativism and a consistent focus on the literature of radicalization and critique. The goal of the Alternative Right is a rebirth of racial/gendered consciousness and a new American/European renaissance.
