{"product_id":"woke-inc-inside-corporate-americas-social-justice-scam-9781546090786","title":"Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America's Social Justice Scam","description":"\u003cb\u003eA young entrepreneur makes the case that politics has no place in business, and sets out a new vision for the future of American capitalism.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThere's a new invisible force at work in our economic and cultural lives. It affects every advertisement we see and every product we buy, from our morning coffee to a new pair of shoes. \"Stakeholder capitalism\" makes rosy promises of a better, more diverse, environmentally-friendly world, but in reality this ideology championed by America's business and political leaders robs us of our money, our voice, and our identity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eVivek Ramaswamy is a traitor to his class. He's founded multibillion-dollar enterprises, led a biotech company as CEO, he became a hedge fund partner in his 20s, trained as a scientist at Harvard and a lawyer at Yale, and grew up the child of immigrants in a small town in Ohio. Now he takes us behind the scenes into corporate boardrooms and five-star conferences, into Ivy League classrooms and secretive nonprofits, to reveal the defining scam of our century. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe modern woke-industrial complex divides us as a people. By mixing morality with consumerism, America's elites prey on our innermost insecurities about who we really are. They sell us cheap social causes and skin-deep identities to satisfy our hunger for a cause and our search for meaning, at a moment when we as Americans lack both. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book not only rips back the curtain on the new corporatist agenda, it offers a better way forward. America's elites may want to sort us into demographic boxes, but we don't have to stay there. \u003ci\u003eWoke, Inc\u003c\/i\u003e. begins as a critique of stakeholder capitalism and ends with an exploration of what it means to be an American in 2021--a journey that begins with cynicism and ends with hope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Center Street\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781546090786\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368","brand":"Vivek Ramaswamy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40550926647477,"sku":"9781546090786","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_01c4b089-3315-4681-a52d-8a4c60b0b20a.jpg?v=1626793089","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/woke-inc-inside-corporate-americas-social-justice-scam-9781546090786","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
