The Diversity Delusion
This book presents a provocative account of how toxic ideas, originating in higher education, have undermined humanistic values and fueled intolerance across American society. It argues that a belief in America's endemic racism and sexism has led to a sprawling diversity bureaucracy that rejects meritocratic standards and encourages a victim mentality. Heather Mac Donald contends that these trends are narrowing minds, fostering grievance, and ultimately jeopardizing the nation's competitive edge.
