The Ends of Resistance sheds an illuminating light on the shocking ways elite media and politicians have appropriated Black political resistance and the #MeToo movement for corporate and individualistic ends. Olson and Zamalin challenge the ways 'anti-racist' tactics have been appropriated to reinforce racial capitalism in a powerful indictment of the nation’s lackluster political will, even among so-called radicals -- Terrence L. Johnson, author of <i>We Testify with Our Lives: How Religion Transformed Radical Thought from Black Power to Black Lives Matter</i>
