«“Michael Gonzalez shows us that the idea of ‘identity’ did not just innocently emerge.  It was invented for the purpose of dividing citizens into groups to be used as political pawns in a plot to change America. Identity politics turns citizens into ‘innocent victims’ in need of governmental carve-outs, and promotes brokers who do their bidding. Gonzalez lays out just how this madness can be brought to an end. A very timely book. Highly recommended.” —Joshua Mitchell, author of American Awakening “Penetrating and insightful....Mr. Gonzalez's illuminating research is particularly relevant now.” —Roger Clegg, National Review Online “Gonzalez goes beyond standard critiques, performing much-needed spadework to trace the left’s steady infiltration of universities, government agencies, courts, foundations, and school boards since the 1960s. His perspective as an assimilated Cuban-American lends authenticity and urgency to the book.” —Eric Kaufmann, Law & Liberty “Gonzalez’s book should be widely read for its valuable insights.” —George R. La Noue, The Federalist “Identity politics is at risk of tearing apart a nation which aspires to be 'indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.' Mike Gonzalez explains in The Plot to Change America how identity politics starting in the 1970s has tried to tear the nation apart—and how, sometimes, it has boomeranged on its practitioners.” —Michael Barone, Senior political analyst, The Washington Examiner, Longtime co-author, The Almanac of American Politics “Persuasive and clarifying, this book is a must read for anyone who wishes to understand how we arrived at the sordid identity politics of today and what must be done to tear it down. Gonzalez reminds Americans of all races and ethnicities that we are better off choosing individual agency, pride, and success over a culture of victimhood.” —Ying Ma, author of Chinese Girl in the Ghetto “Mike Gonzalez is a tremendous voice for conservatism. In his new book, The Plot to Change America, Mike irrefutably wrecks the identity politics arguments of the political Left, which have been tearing the country apart for years.” —Ben Shapiro, host of “The Ben Shapiro Show” and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Right Side of History “A forceful call to stop the cancerous spread of identity politics and begin to undo the terrible damage it has done to our country.” —David Azerrad, Hillsdale College»
