The book delves into the complex interplay of religion with both progressive and conservative ideologies during the 1960s, revealing that conservative movements often embraced progressive elements while progressive narratives contained conservative aspects. It examines key events like the Civil Rights Movement and the Anti-War Movements, highlighting the ironic intersections of protest and retrieval. Lints argues that religion plays dual roles—both prophetic and domesticating—challenging the notion that either ideological side holds a monopoly on these functions, thus enriching our understanding of religion's impact on cultural formation.
