Publisher's Synopsis
Thom Hartmann, the most popular progressive radio host in America and a New York Times bestselling author, reveals the real history of guns in America and what we can do to limit both their lethal impact and the power of the gun lobby. Taking an in-depth, historically informed view, the first audiobook in the Hidden History series examines the brutal role guns have played in American history, from the genocide of the Native Americans to the enforcement of slavery and post-Civil War racism, coining the term "the Unholy Trinity of racism, genocide, and guns." He also exposes the alliance of the NRA and conservative Supreme Court justices who invented the unlimited right to own guns. Ever practical, Hartmann identifies solutions that can break the power of the gun lobby and put an end to the alarming reality of gun violence in the United States.
