{"product_id":"abusing-religion-megan-goodwin-9781978807785","title":"Abusing Religion: Literary Persecution, Sex Scandals, and American Minority Religions","description":"Sex abuse happens in all communities, but American minority religions often face disproportionate allegations of sexual abuse. Why, in a country that consistently fails to acknowledge--much less address--the sexual abuse of women and children, do American religious outsiders so often face allegations of sexual misconduct? Why does the American public presume to know \"what's really going on\" in minority religious communities? Why are sex abuse allegations such an effective way to discredit people on America's religious margins? What makes Americans so willing, so eager to identify religion as the cause of sex abuse? \u003ci\u003eAbusing Religion\u003c\/i\u003e argues that sex abuse in minority religious communities is an American problem, not (merely) a religious one. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Megan Goodwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1978807783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781978807785\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rutgers University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Megan Goodwin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941048942847,"sku":"9781978807785","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_38771237-332c-4ade-a4e8-0787ab12250c.jpg?v=1681450611","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/abusing-religion-megan-goodwin-9781978807785","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
