Summary "Smith argues that the nation has never been united, and that the hideousness of this moment has been long brewing...Central to the national delusion as he sees it is the question of what is political. "Pickup trucks and oak trees are apolitical only if no one you have ever loved has had their body dragged behind one or hanged from the other." Years and years of "depoliticization" have obfuscated the violent means by which our government has enriched white people and oppressed poor people of color, he maintains. While the book is centered on racial inequalities, Smith also looks at gender and the Me Too movement"-- Library Journal.
