"No nation rises by myth alone-especially when that myth is its undoing."Self-Affliction: Anatomy of Imperfection - The More Perfect Union - or The World's Greatest Illusion is a radical intellectual excavation of the American experiment-probing the fault lines of its founding, the moral hypocrisy of its ideals, and the systemic structures that perpetuate inequity. Sherman A. Jones fuses scholarly critique with philosophical depth, delivering a scathing yet constructive interrogation of U.S. governance, culture, and identity.This book dissects the Constitution, capitalism, white supremacy, religious distortion, and the manipulation of history, exposing how empire masks itself as democracy. Through rigorous historical context and prophetic moral clarity, Jones challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths: that freedom without justice is fiction, and unity without equity is illusion.Far from a partisan critique, this is a call for self-examination. Self-affliction demands more than awareness-it demands transformation. With citations, case studies, and unflinching honesty, this work belongs on every academic bookshelf for all citizens to deconstruct the empire and reimagine society in full harmony with righteous ideals.
