520    From one of the country's most respected religion 
       reporters, a paradigm-shifting discussion of how the 
       religious left is actually the moral compass that has long
       steered America's political debates, including today. 
       Since the ascendancy of the religious right in the 1970s, 
       common wisdom holds that it is a coalition of 
       fundamentalist power brokers who are the "moral majority",
       setting the standard for conservative Christian values and
       working to preserve the status quo. But, as national 
       religion reporter Jack Jenkins contends, the country is 
       also driven by a vibrant, long-standing moral force from 
       the left. Constituting an amorphous group of interfaith 
       activists that goes by many names and takes many forms, 
       this coalition has operated since America's founding - 
       praying, protesting, and marching for common goals that 
       have moved society forward. Throughout our history, the 
       religious left has embodied and championed the progressive
       values at the heart of American democracy - abolition, 
       labor reform, civil rights, environmental preservation. 
       Drawing on his years of reporting, Jenkins examines the 
       reemergence of progressive faith-based activism, detailing
       its origins and contrasting its goals with those of the 
       religious right. Today's rapidly expanding interfaith 
       coalition - which includes Christians, Jews, Muslims, 
       Buddhists, and other faiths - has become a force within 
       the larger "resistance" movement. Jenkins profiles 
       Washington political insiders - including former White 
       House staffers and faith outreach directors for the 
       campaigns of Barack Obama, John Kerry, and Hillary Clinton
       - as well as a new generation of progressive faith leaders
       at the forefront today, including: Rev. William Barber II,
       leader of North Carolina's Moral Mondays and co-chair of 
       the nationwide Poor People's campaign Linda Sarsour, co-
       chair of the Women's March Rev. Traci Blackmon, a pastor 
       near Ferguson, Missouri, who works to lift up black 
       liberation efforts across the country Sister Simone 
       Campbell, head of the Catholic social justice lobby and 
       the "Nuns on the Bus" tour organizer Native American 
       "water protectors" who demonstrated against the Dakota 
       Access Pipeline in Standing Rock Bishop Gene Robinson, the
       first openly gay Episcopal bishop An exciting reevaluation
       of America's moral center and an inspiring portrait of 
       progressive faith-in-action, American Prophets will change
       the way we think about the intersection of politics and 
       religion.
