We're witches, and we're hunting you.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From the moment powerful men started falling to the #MeToo movement, the lamentations began: this is feminism gone too far, this is injustice, this is a witch hunt. In \u003ci\u003eThe Witches Are Coming\u003c\/i\u003e, Lindy West, turns that refrain on its head. You think this is a witch hunt? Fine. You've got one. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a laugh-out-loud, incisive cultural critique, West extolls the world-changing magic of truth, urging readers to reckon with dark lies in the heart of the American mythos, and unpacking the complicated, and sometimes tragic, politics of not being a white man in the twenty-first century. She tracks the misogyny and propaganda hidden (or not so hidden) in the media she and her peers devoured growing up, a buffet of distortions, delusions, prejudice, and outright bullsh*t that has allowed white male mediocrity to maintain a death grip on American culture and politics--and that delivered us to this precarious, disorienting moment in history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e We cannot understand how we got here'--how the land of the free became Trump's America--without examining the chasm between who we are and who we think we are, without fact-checking the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves and each other. The truth can transform us; there is witchcraft in it. Lindy West turns on the light.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLindy West\u003c\/b\u003e is an opinion writer for the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e.
