New
York Times bestselling author Sarah Kendzior documents the truth about the
calculated rise to power of Donald Trump since the 1980s and how the erosion of
our liberties made an American demagogue possible.
The story of Donald Trump’s
rise to power is the story of a buried American history – buried because people
in power liked it that way. It was visible without being seen, influential
without being named, ubiquitous without being overt.
Sarah Kendzior’s Hiding in
Plain Sight pulls back the veil on a history spanning decades, a history of an
American autocrat in the making. In doing so, she reveals the inherent
fragility of American democracy – how our continual loss of freedom, the rise
of consolidated corruption, and the secrets behind a burgeoning autocratic
United States have been hiding in plain sight for decades.
In Kendzior’s signature and
celebrated style, she expertly outlines Trump’s meteoric rise from the 1980s
until today, interlinking key moments of his life with the degradation of the
American political system and the continual erosion of our civil liberties by
foreign powers. Kendzior also offers a never-before-seen look at her lifelong
tendency to be in the wrong place at the wrong time – living in New York
through 9/11 and in St. Louis during the Ferguson uprising, and researching
media and authoritarianism when Trump emerged using the same tactics as the
post-Soviet dictatorships she had long studied.
It is a terrible feeling to
sense a threat coming, but it is worse when we let apathy, doubt, and fear
prevent us from preparing ourselves. Hiding in Plain Sight confronts the
injustice we have too long ignored because the truth is the only way forward.
