    We Need New Stories: The Myths That Subvert Freedom
    • Exploring the political landscape post-2016, Nesrine Malik examines the narratives surrounding political correctness, identity politics, and free speech, particularly in the context of Donald Trump's presidency. She argues that these claims are not just opinions but myths that distort American values and societal issues. By dissecting these prevalent arguments, Malik seeks to reveal the underlying truths and challenges facing democracy, urging a reevaluation of the stories that shape political discourse in contemporary America.

      We Need New Stories: The Myths That Subvert Freedom

Six myths have taken hold, ones which are at odds with our lived experience and in urgent need of revision.Has freedom of speech become a cover for promoting prejudice? Has the concept of political correctness been weaponised to avoid ceding space to those excluded from power? Does white identity politics pose an urgent danger? These are some of the questions at the centre of Nesrine Malik's radical and compelling analysis that challenges us to find new narrators whose stories can fill the void and unite us behind a shared vision.
