Paperback. Zustand: Good. This provocative, "critically important" memoir of working-class boyhood in rural Indiana offers a searing cultural analysis of toxic masculinity in American culture (NPR). As progressivism changes American society, and globalism shifts labor away from traditional manufacturing, the roles that have been prescribed to men since the Industrial Revolution have been rendered obsolete. Donald Trump's campaign successfully leveraged male resentment and entitlement, and now, with Trump as president and the rise of the #MeToo movement, it's clear that our current definitions of masculinity are outdated and even dangerous. Deeply personal and thoroughly researched, the author of The People Are Going to Rise Like the Waters Upon Your Shore has turned his keen eye to our current crisis of masculinity using his upbringing in rural Indiana to examine the personal and societal dangers of the patriarchy. The Man They Wanted Me to Be examines how we teach boys what's expected of men in America, and the long-term effects of that socialization―which include depression, shorter lives, misogyny, and suicide. Sexton turns his keen eye to the establishment of the racist patriarchal structure which has favored white men, and investigates the personal and societal dangers of such outdated definitions of manhood. " . . . exposes the true cost of toxic masculinity . . . and takes aim at the patriarchal structures in American society that continue to uphold an outdated ideal of manhood." -Book Riot.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. "An impressionistic and often disturbing account of the 2016 presidential race . . . Sexton grapples with the Trump campaign from the perspective of the crowds reveling in the candidate's presence and message. It is a useful vantage point given the increasingly blatant bigotry in the months since the election . . . This book reveals the incremental nature of public displays of hatred, growing from harsh chants and bumper stickers to, say, an open and unmasked gathering of white supremacistsin Charlottesville . . . [His] dispatches are bracing." --The Washington Post When he agreed to cover the 2016 election season,journalist Jared Yates Sexton didn't know he wasstepping into what would become--for both politicalparties--the most rageful and divisive political circusin U.S. history. His initial dispatches showed Democrats atwar with their establishment, coming apart at theseams over the long-gestating ascendancy of HillaryClinton and the upstart momentum of BernieSanders, whose grassroots campaign provoked uprisingsof people desperate for change. Then, onJune 14, Sexton attended a Donald Trump rallyin Greensboro, North Carolina. One of the firstjournalists to witness these rallies and give mainstreamreaders an idea of the raw anger that occurredthere, Sexton found himself in the center ofa maelstrom. Following a series of tweets that sawhis observations viewed well over 1 million times,his reporting was soon featured inThe WashingtonPost, NPR,Bloomberg, andMother Jones, and hewould go on to write two pieces forThe New YorkTimes. Sexton gained more than 18,000 followerson Twitter in a matter of days, and received onlineharassments, campaigns to get him fired from hisuniversity professorship, and death threats thatchanged his life forever. The People Are Going to Rise Like the WatersUpon Your Shore is a firsthand account of the eventsthat shaped the 2016 presidential election and thecultural forces that divided both parties and poweredDonald Trump into the White House. Featuringin-the-field reports as well as deep analysis, Sexton'sbook is not just the story of the most unexpected and divisive election in modern political history. Itis also a sobering chronicle of our democracy's politicalpolarization--a result of our self-constructed,technologically assisted echo chambers. Like the works of Hunter S. Thompson andNorman Mailer--books that have paved the way forimportant narratives that shape how we perceivenot only the politics of our time but also our way oflife--The People Are Going to Rise Like the WatersUpon Your Shore is an instant classic, an authoritativedepiction of a country struggling to make sense of itself.…
