2020 university grad; this is the rosetta stone for our culture
I just graduated from college and this book explains the last four years of my life perfectly. Thanks to this book, I understand everything from why and how I was taught that Atticus Finch (the father and lawyer from "To Kill A Mockingbird") was a very bad man to why my female friends and I memorized where literally every single stall bathroom on campus was, to save ourselves from having to share with the smirking "people with prostates" and beards who would use our bathrooms after the "use whatever bathroom you feel comfortable in" policy was set (note: I didn't say they were trans; I doubt they were, but I don't know and since the only definition we're allowed to have is that they are if they say they are, neither do you).
This book gives a detailed history of the movement to destroy liberal principles and replace them with Wokeness. It makes what is happening on our streets make sense. It explains the absurdity of things like the videos going around as I write this, of restaurant patrons being harassed by thugs screaming in their faces and demanding that they make a show of obedience and fealty to the mob.
The authors are two of the trio who successfully published multiple academic papers in the various fields I'm referring to (the ones I had to take three mandatory courses in to get my degree)--the ones they call "grievance studies." They know their stuff to the point that they successfully won awards while posing as true believers in this religion.
This book will get tons of 1 star reviews from academics who feel entitled to make up problems or write autoethnographies (that's literally personal essays where they spout how oppressed they feel by the racial dynamics of the staff at Starbucks and other inanities) and get taxpayer-funded jobs for life. Don't believe it. Read the book for yourself. Have the courage to examine thoughts you may not agree with and see if they hold up.
