Fortitude
American Resilience in the Era of Outrage
Recommendation
Texas congressman Dan Crenshaw – a former Navy SEAL wounded while serving in Afghanistan – draws on his experiences and the examples of his heroes to argue for resilience and courage. He sees much of the discord within the United States as an identity crisis caused by what he calls “outrage culture.” Crenshaw pushes back against those who see injustice everywhere they look and respond with perpetual rage. Instead of resorting to hyperbole and fabrication, he uses logic to advocate a conservative viewpoint. Even if you disagree, you may appreciate his call for high standards of behavior and his efforts to have calm discussions about tough issues.
