Erasing History: How Fascists Rewrite the Past to Control the Future
Jason Stanley
"I've never read a book that is as timely, urgent and essential as this one. A battle plan for keeping this nation from falling into fascism." —Khalil Gibran Muhammad, author of The Condemnation of Blackness
From the bestselling author of How Fascism Works, a searing confrontation with the far right's efforts to rewrite history and undo a century of progress on race, gender, sexuality, and class.
The human race finds itself again under threat of a rising global fascist movement.
