No Apologies

“Katherine Brodsky’s first book, No Apologies, is a triumph. It is a detailed account of Cancel Culture that helps the reader understand the phenomenon, its victims, and its special kind of madness.” —Greg Lukianoff, President of FIRE and coauthor of The Coddling of the American Mind
“When I was young, my piano teacher told me stories about growing up under Mao in China. As a classical musician, she had to hide her sheet music from the Red Guard or be accused of supporting ‘western imperialism.’ She even put felt over her piano strings to practice Mozart in silence. Katherine Brodsky’s No Apologies makes it clear that we are witnessing an Orwellian shift toward illiberalism among supposedly liberal democracies—and that things will get a lot worse if we continue to let ourselves be silenced.” —Sean Ono Lennon, musician and songwriter
“Katherine Brodsky isn’t apologizing…for anything. Why should I? At last, someone has taken apart the growing instinct for self-censorship that has paralyzed so much of our public discourse—on campus, in government, in the arts, and especially among the pundits, commentators, and other self-serious moralizers who seek to define legitimacy. In No Apologies, the fearless Brodsky explains exactly how this rigid cowardice took hold and how we can all free ourselves from its enforcers’ iron grip. There are many reasons to hate today’s thought police but none more important than this one: Life is sooo boring when everyone has to agree!” —Ellis Henican, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author
“As our world spirals into darkness from creeping censorship, Katherine Brodsky is a much-needed voice providing a light through the dark. Sure, that sounds like some flowery bullshit quote, but we’re going to need a lot more like Katherine to help us through this dark period in our history.” —Chris Gore, publisher and editor of Film Threat
