Reagan's Policies: A Double-Edged Sword
This chapter examines the impact of Reagan's re-election campaign slogan and its accompanying imagery, which predominantly favored white suburban families while neglecting marginalized communities. It critiques domestic and foreign policies, particularly the war on drugs and arms dealings, that deepened socioeconomic disparities and involved controversial international actions. Finally, it reflects on the shifts in rhetoric towards diplomacy with Gorbachev, juxtaposing Reagan's aggressive ideology with a more collaborative approach to nuclear disarmament.
