Through the last 150 years of American history—from the post-reconstruction South and the mythic stories of cowboys in the West, to the present-day controversy over NFL protests and the backlash against the rise of women in politics—Ijeoma Oluo exposes the devastating consequences of white male supremacy on women, people of color, and white men themselves. Mediocre investigates the real costs of this phenomenon in order to imagine a new white male identity, one free from racism and sexism.

The book we need right now
Reviewed: 06-26-21
The writing is very easy to take in despite the loaded subject. It’s very helpful to have historical context for the behavior we see in headlines and in everyday moments. And definitely one of the best “read by the author” audiobook performances I’ve heard in a while.
