ITEM OVERVIEW
In her widely anticipated follow-up to Cunt: A Declaration of Independence, controversial author Inga Muscio asserts that the history we learn in school and throughout life is, in fact, a marketing brand developed by white men who maintain the right to spin their ideologies as hard facts. Muscio draws insigh from personal experience, tackling a wide array of topics - from white mornativity to gentrification to U.S. foreign policy - with dissension and unflinching self-awareness. "Muscio [is] one of the smartest and most honest thinkers I've ever encountered. [Her] wry and entertaining stories are really daggers and hand grenades ripping away at both the spectacular and everyday forms of racism that have bedcome the new common sense in the U.S. Poetic, funny, biting, disturbing, transformative...this is the kind of ride some folks dread but everyone requires." [Robin D G Kelley]
