Description: In Ancient Echoes, Walter Brueggemann responds to eight "truth claims" made by the radical right in US politics.

In his book Evil Geniuses: The Unmaking of America: A Recent History, Kurt Andersen enunciates eight "truth claims" made by the political right that champion aggressive self-sufficiency and self-security at the expense of the community. In the process, any hint of "the common good" among neighbours disappears from the scene.

Brueggemann responds to each of these mistaken "truth claims" through the witness of scripture and an insistence upon a common good -- a neighbourly practice of generosity, hospitality, forgiveness, justice, compassion, and mercy.
