How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity―and Why This Harms Everybody
This is a book about ideas--specifically, about the evolution of a certain set of ideas, and how these ideas have come to dominate every important discussion about race, gender, and identity today. The truth, however, is that many of these ideas are recent inventions, are not grounded in scientific fact, and do not account for the sheer complexity of social reality and human experience. In fact, they often deny and even undermine the very principles on which liberal democratic societies are built -- the very ideas that have allowed for unprecedented human progress, lifted standards of living across the world, and given us the opportunity and right to consider and debate these ideas in the first place! Ultimately, therefore, this is a book about what it truly means to have a just and equal society, and how best to get there.
