Nation of victims : identity politics, the death of merit, and the path back to excellence / Vivek Ramaswamy.

Ramaswamy, Vivek, (author.).

Summary:

"The New York Times bestselling author of Woke Inc. makes the case that the essence of true American identity is to pursue excellence unapologetically and reject victimhood culture." -- Amazon.com.
America's inner spirit has been domesticated by a new culture that rejects excellence and embraces victimhood. Ramaswamy makes the case that the essence of true American identity is to pursue excellence unapologetically-- no matter your skin color or ethnic origin. He explains that we are all victims now: victims of each other, and ultimately, of ourselves. -- adapted from jacket
