The Harmful Legacy of White Male America

From the writer of the New York Occasions bestseller So You Wish to Discuss About Race: a subversive historical past of white male American id.

What happens to a country that repeatedly assures white American males of their entitlement to power? Instead of valuing real achievements, what if success is measured by dominating women and people of color?

Over the past 150 years of American history, from the aftermath of Reconstruction to the iconic tales of cowboys in the West, and up to the current debates on NFL protests and the resistance to the advancement of women in politics, Ijeoma Oluo delves into the harmful impacts of white male supremacy on women, people of color, and even white men themselves. In "Mediocre," she delves into the real consequences of this issue to envision a new white male identity that is devoid of racism and sexism.

Prepare to have your perceptions challenged by this thought-provoking e-book. It promises to revolutionize your understanding of American identity, offering a fresh and bold perspective on American greatness that you won't find elsewhere.
