I'LL BURN THAT BRIDGE WHEN I GET TO IT: Heretical Thoughts on Identity Politics, Cancel Culture, and Academic Freedom

From the book:

The Obama cult is rooted in and the fully ripened fruit of identity politics. How, then, should its legacy be reckoned? Identity politics has distracted from and, when need be, outright sabotaged a class-based movement that promised profound social change. It counsels Black people not to trust whites, as their racism is so entrenched and so omnipresent as to poison their every thought and action. It conveys to poor whites that they, no less than the white billionaire class, are beneficiaries of racism, so that it would be foolhardy of them to ally with Black people. It fractures, splinters, fragments a natural and necessary alliance of the have-nots by splicing and dicing them into, literally, an infinitude of subgroups, each of which insists on parity representation in any coalition, creating a cacophony of demands and preempting any possibility of that broad unity and solidarity which, alone, can defeat the organized, ramified power of wealth.
