A Jewish American activist looks to his faith for ways to remedy America’s political divisions — Kirkus Reviews
In an era when many Jews are afraid to wear kippahs (yarmulkes) in public, Marc Daniels encourages candidates to popularize religious skullcaps as political SWAG. From advocating female reproductive rights to protecting voting rights, candidates can promote their party platforms while taking a stand against antisemitism. The author made national headlines during the 2016, 2020, and 2024 presidential election cycles by distributing personalized campaign kippahs to Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump, Mike Pence, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Nikki Haley. During Nikki Haley’s primary campaign, he convinced her to offer a campaign kippah on her website. In this book, Daniels offers an alternative vision (“Making America Kosher Again”) that blends Kabbalah mysticism and the “deepest roots of the Torah” to provide a spiritual vision that turns Trump’s campaign slogan, Make America Great Again, “on its head” by encouraging civic prayer and collective intentions for “cultural unification.”
