Summary
From former New York Times reporter Nellie Bowles comes an irreverent romp through the sacred spaces of the new left.
As a Hillary voter, a New York Times reporter, and a frequent attendee at her local gay bars, Nellie Bowles fit right in with her San Francisco neighbors and friends - until she started questioning whether the progressive movement she knew and loved was actually helping people.
When her colleagues suggested that asking these questions meant she was 'on the wrong side of history,' Bowles did what any reporter worth her salt would do: she started investigating for herself. The answers she found were stranger - and funnier - than she'd expected.
In Morning After the Revolution, Bowles gives listeners a front-row seat to the absurd drama of a political movement gone mad. With irreverent accounts of attending a multi-day course on 'The Toxic Trends of Whiteness,' following the social justice activists who run 'Abolitionist Entertainment, LLC,' and trying to please the New York Times's 'disinformation czar,' she deftly exposes the more comic excesses of a movement that went from a sideshow to the very centre of Western life.
Deliciously funny and painfully insightful, Morning After the Revolution is a moment of collective psychosis preserved in amber.

A hilarious polemic against Woke ideology by an old-fashioned “progressive”
What makes this book unique amongst the various takedowns of Woke culture is that the author is a self-described left-wing progressive. Hilarious and cutting in equal measure this is essential a satirical work of cultural history exploring why the world went mad in 2020. Although it is focused on US culture, the book transcends national borders (as a Brit I still enjoyed it immensely).

So helpful for understanding what has gone on in the USA in the last few years
I heard of this book through Bari Weis and it is such a great insight into the mind virus that has swept America and thence the UK and increasingly western Europe too. Fascinating account that covers BLM, San Francisco's demise, whiteness, schools, corporations, politics, the media and more. All of this from a former fully paid up member of the woke establishment until she became 'woke' to its downside. Well written, insightful and not too long!
