Reviews
"I've never read a book that is as timely, urgent and essential as this one. Erasing History is, at this moment, the only source of knowledge I know of that is a sort of battle plan for keeping this nation from falling into fascism. You must read this book." --Khalil Gibran Muhammad, Ford Foundation Professor of History, Race and Public Policy Director, Institutional Antiracism and Accountability Project, Harvard Kennedy School, Co-host of Some of My Best Friends Are (Pushkin Podcasts), "Simply put, Stanley has laid out the blueprint for the worldwide fascist attack on history. A must-read to fight authoritarianism and disinformation." --Anthea Butler, author of White Evangelical Racism: The Politics of Morality in America, "Jason Stanley's engaging work has taught people in the 21st century the anatomy of fascism as a political system. In Erasing History , Stanley dissects the ideological components of the fascist assault on historical teaching, memory and analysis. He shows how everything from the antisemitic Great Replacement Theory to the vilification of gay people and feminists to the promotion of myths of national purity and historical innocence all work to demolish democratic agency and freedom. But he leaves us with the sense that those who fight for the past can save the future." --Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Lead Impeachment Manager in the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump; Member of the House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack; Author of Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth and the Trials of American Democracy, "Why are so many actors on the radical right laying siege to our schools? Hint: it's far more serious than current reporting conveys. In this powerful book, Jason Stanley deftly interweaves his family's experience under Nazi rule with a far-reaching, lucid explanation of why authoritarians hate honest history. A must read to understand how much truth telling matters for multiracial democracy to withstand the siege." --Nancy MacLean, author of Democracy in Chains: The Deep History of the Radical Right's Stealth Plan for America, "Jason Stanley has done it again. This urgent, piercing, and altogether brilliant book exposes how the fight to learn from our past is ultimately a fight about the promise of our future. Erasing History unpacks the imperative story of our time: how authoritarianism aims to collapse history into a single, drab, monololithic narrative. And how the fight for freedom is one that requires us to disrupt that telling through continued, collective reflection and re-imagination." --Jonathan M. Metzl, author of What We've Become: Living and Dying in a Country of Arms, " Erasing History delivers a vital decoding of the wide-ranging effort of a small but well-organized and well-resourced faction seeking to consolidate power by censoring knowledge and rewriting the past. An unflinching account of the fascist dimensions of the current moment." -- Kimberlé Crenshaw, Co-Founder & Executive Director of the African American Policy Forum, Columbia University and University of California-Los Angeles Professor of Law, " Erasing History is both sequel and prequel to Jason Stanley's invaluable How Fascism Works , a sweeping survey of this global fascist moment's anti-education tide. From India to Turkey, from Russia to Florida--and maybe soon in a classroom near you--gross declarations of supremacist nationalism are becoming awful substitutes for historical inquiry. Erasing History , fast-paced and up-to-the-minute, tells us how it's happening and why the past is a frontline in the struggle for a future free of fascism." --Jeff Sharlet, New York Times bestselling author of The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War

Synopsis
From the bestselling author of How Fascism Works , a global call to action that tells us "why the past is a frontline in the struggle for a future free of fascism" (Jeff Sharlet, New York Times bestselling author) as it reveals the far right's efforts to rewrite history and undo a century of progress on race, gender, sexuality, and class. In the United States, democracy is under attack by an authoritarian movement that has found fertile ground among the country's conservative politicians and voters, but similar movements have found homes in the hearts and minds of people around the globe. To understand the shape, form, and stakes of this assault, we must go back to extract lessons from our past. In authoritarian countries, critical examination of those nations' history and traditions is discouraged if not an outright danger to those who do it. And it is no accident that local and global institutions of education have become a battleground, where learning and efforts to upend a hierarchal status quo can be put to end by coercion and threats of violence. Democracies entrust schools and universities to preserve a common memory of positive change, generated by protests, social movements, and rebellions. The authoritarian right must erase this history, and, along with it, the very practice of critical inquiry that has so often been the engine of future progress. In Erasing History , Yale professor of philosophy Jason Stanley exposes the true danger of the authoritarian right's attacks on education, identifies their key tactics and funders, and traces their intellectual roots. He illustrates how fears of a fascist future have metastasized, from hypothetical threat to present reality. And with his "urgent, piercing, and altogether brilliant" (Johnathan M. Metzl, author of What We've Become ) insight, he illustrates that hearts and minds are won in our schools and universities--places that democratic societies across the world are now ill-prepared to defend against the fascist assault currently underway.
