J. Walker Smith

Bestselling and well-published author, J. Walker Smith, Ph.D. is writing a new manuscript: Loss and Found: Political and Cultural Divisions Are Not the Real Issue in America. He states: “America is at war with the idea of itself. This sounds like old news, but the usual headlines tell a different story, one of Americans at war with themselves—blue versus red, left versus right, urban versus rural, the 99% versus the 1%, the Squad versus Trumpers. These fights rage on, but they are skirmishes in the real war. It’s more than Americans squaring off against one another. It’s Americans on all sides warring with the loss of the idea of America. Loss, not divisiveness, is what haunts America.”
