A hot-off-the-presses account of the events in Palestine, the United States, Israel, and Lebanon since October 7, 2023. Veteran public-opinion pollster and election analyst Cheryl Mercado Arnedt focuses her keen analytic skills on the people and forces that brought us to a point in time when the vast majority of Americans remained stubbornly unmoved by a 24/7 livestreamed genocide. Part One is a heartfelt explication of what transpired as Americans and those around the world bore witness to the unfolding atrocities in Gaza. Part Two lays out tough issues that need to be faced squarely including tackling Islamophobic and racist hatred, understanding the nature of terrorism, and dispelling the widespread propaganda meant to obscure what has happened in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. The last part titled "Where Do We Go From Here?" is a humane call to action, illuminating the work of legendary activists from whom we can all learn as we build a better future together. Released just days before Election Day 2024, The Solidarity Myth provides readers with plenty of food for thought on the other side of the 2024 presidential campaign season to help people navigate what Arnedt calls "this ever-darkening American midnight."
