Death of a Nation: Plantation Politics and the Making of the Democratic Party

In Death of a Nation, Dinesh D'Souza challenges the idea that America is a society based on white supremacy. He argues that Democrats are harming the nation by creating a nanny state inspired by the Southern plantation system. This alternative history traces the Democratic Party's roots to the antebellum South, suggesting its model of dependency has evolved into a modern multiracial plantation. The book reinterprets the roles of figures like Van Buren, FDR, and LBJ, aiming to expose a hidden truth about racism in American politics.
