Description
The Witches Are Coming by Lindy West is a wickedly funny cultural critique that exposes misogyny in the #MeToo era. A witch hunt has begun, and West invites you to join it. In this laugh-out-loud incisive analysis, she turns the tables on those who claim feminism has gone too far, urging readers to reckon with dark lies in the heart of American mythos. West tracks the misogyny and propaganda hidden in media consumed by her peers growing up, revealing distortions, delusions, prejudice, and bullsh*t that has allowed white male mediocrity to maintain a grip on American culture and politics. She examines the complex politics of not being a white man in the 21st century, where the stakes are high and the consequences are dire. With unflinching honesty, West writes about the precarious moment we find ourselves in, where progress is threatened by regression. This book is a call to action, urging readers to confront the truth and challenge the status quo.
