Encouraging Hope in a Time of Despair
In a media landscape flooded with “alternative facts” and outright lies, Norman Bender’s essays are islands of truth.
Bender has been an astute observer of American politics and culture for decades. His letters and opinions have been published in newspapers across the country, including the New York Times, USA Today, the Chicago Tribune, and the Boston Globe. He also takes pride in his local presence with the Hartford Courant and the New Haven Register.
This collection of some of Bender’s most pointed writings shows the struggles our nation has faced in the past quarter century, highlights the shortcomings of some of our leaders, and serves as a cautionary tale. It also encourages all Americans to fight to restore the ideals that the United States was founded on: liberty, equality, and justice for all. He writes quickly and literally shouts from the outset, and he freely acknowledges that he might not always be right, but that doesn’t inhibit him from always being sure.
