America's Slide Towards Authoritarianism (Rapid Response / Paperback / 2025)
A Rapid Response Publishing Series Paperback
IHRAM Press publishes America’s Slide Toward Authoritarianism, a folio of American and international writers and artists marshaling forces to offer a response to this dire political moment in the United States, which our political leaders, justice system, educational institutions and corporations seem unable or unwilling to do.
This book presents 30 writers and 12 visual artists, culled from more than 350 submissions, all offering their take on the fragility of the values that once made America great: freedom of expression, democracy for everyone, religious and ethnic pluralism, and the belief that all people are created equal.
This anthology fosters hope for a society that continues to speak up, from stories about the immigration raids, to erasing marginalized voices in the media and historical archives, to our artists and writers who risk repercussions for questioning authority. But there is hope in creative expression and art: they are a gateway to fighting oppression, exploitation, and violation.
The publication includes an introduction by Tom Block, Founding Executive Director of IHRAM.
