Minority Rule: Adventures in the Culture War
'One of the boldest and most exciting thinkers of her generation' NAOMI KLEIN
'Delivers its message with punch and panache ... a joy to read' GUARDIAN
'If leftists feel they have been stumbling around in the darkness, Minority Rule flicks on the light' STANDARD
Minority rule (noun): an irrational fear fuelled by right-wing pundits, lobby journalists and billionaires that minority groups are displacing majority populations.
We all know that the modern world is in crisis. But it's not just a crisis for the climate, or of living standards - it's a 'blame crisis'. Whether it's infighting on the left or the demonisation of immigrants on the right, there's always a new talking point to distract us from real, systemic change.
Now is the time to realise that we have been duped into fighting with each other; now is the time to redirect our outrage towards those who deserve it.
In Minority Rule, political commentator Ash Sarkar offers a sharp and lively reality check. Whether it's exposing the origins of the 'white working class', or examining how 'non-events' have taken over journalism, this book - now with a brand new afterword - will help you break the blame cycle for good.
