"I do not love America, and never have, especially now." Those are the opening words of America, U.S.A.: How Race Shadows the Nation's Anniversaries, a new book from Princeton historian Eddie Glaude. Released ahead of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, the book is a critical look back at how the United States has celebrated previous milestone birthdays, including what narratives were left out of the official commemorations. This comes as President Donald Trump has made himself the center of many events and celebrations for the 250th anniversary, while promoting a "storybook version" of U.S. history that elides the injustice that was baked into the very founding of the country, Glaude tells Democracy Now! in a wide-ranging conversation about race, inequality and the legacy of slavery.
"Donald Trump and his supporters, they want to be white without judgment," says Glaude. "History is a battleground, because history, of course, holds them to account."
