Cancel culture and political correctness are destroying free speech and Western civilisation's institutions and way of life. It's time to fight back and return to sanity.
A topical and informative anthology exploring the origins and impact of cancel culture and political correctness in Western societies - including schools, universities, political and legal systems, the church, family, the media and intermediary organisations, such as trade unions and professional bodies. Especially as a result of the Black Lives Matter movement and the impact of political correctness, not a week goes by without public controversy and debate.
Destroying statues, re-writing history, re-naming Coon cheese, promoting gender fluidity in schools, opposing the establishment of the Ramsay Centre for the study of Western civilisation, attacking free speech and seeking to intimidate and silence those who don't subscribe to Woke orthodoxy are recent examples of cancel culture and political correctness in action.
To date, the public debate has been dominated by the cultural-left. By way of response, this anthology details the nature and origins of the culture wars, provides real-world examples and details the prevalence and dangers of cultural-left ideology and cancel culture.
The anthology concludes by positively exploring the best way forward to foster reason and balance, instead of politically correct ideology and groupthink.
