Critics Review
“With sharp intersectional analysis and an unflinching eye, McThomas shows how race and gender grievance don’t just coexist on the American right—they are mutually constitutive, each hierarchy propping up the other. This is the rare book that connects incel forums, Critical Race Theory bans, statehouse anti-trans bills, and the modern Republican Party into a single, coherent, and deeply persuasive story.”
– Ashley Jardina | author of “White Identity Politics”“This is a brilliant book; one that is impossible to put down once started. Mary McThomas deftly guides her reader through theory and concept, analysis, and empirical data from surveys of the US population to produce an incisive and highly persuasive argument about the overlapping ideological systems of white supremacy and male dominance and their influence in right-wing politics. The Battle for White Male Supremacy is a tour de force.”
