520    One of the enduring legacies of the 2012 Presidential 
       campaign was the demise of the white American male voter 
       as a dominant force in the political landscape. On 
       election night, after Obama was announced the winner, a 
       distressed Bill O'Reilly lamented that he didn't live in a
       traditional America anymore. He was joined by others who 
       bellowed their grief on the talk radio airwaves, the 
       traditional redoubt of angry white men. Why were they so 
       angry? Sociologist Michael Kimmel has spent hundreds of 
       hours in the company of America's angry white men, from 
       white supremacists to men's rights activists to young 
       students in pursuit of an answer. Angry White Men presents
       a comprehensive diagnosis of their fears, anxieties, and 
       rage. Kimmel locates this increase in anger in the seismic
       economic, social, and political shifts that have so 
       transformed the American landscape. Downward mobility, 
       increased racial and gender equality, and a tenacious 
       clinging to an anachronistic ideology of masculinity has 
       left many men feeling betrayed and bewildered. Raised to 
       expect unparalleled social and economic privilege, white 
       men are suffering today from what Kimmel calls "aggrieved 
       entitlement": a sense that those benefits that white men 
       believed were their due have been snatched away from them.
       Angry White Men discusses, among others, the sons of small
       town America, scarred by underemployment and wage 
       stagnation. When America's white men feel they've lived 
       their lives the 'right' way worked hard and stayed out of 
       trouble and still do not get economic rewards, then they 
       have to blame somebody else. Even more terrifying is the 
       phenomenon of angry young boys. School shootings in the 
       United States are not just the work of "misguided youth" 
       or "troubled teens"--They're all committed by boys. These 
       alienated young men are transformed into mass murderers by
       a sense that using violence against others is their right.
       The future of America is more inclusive and diverse. The 
       choice for angry white men is not whether or not they can 
       stem the tide of history: they cannot. Their choice is 
       whether they will be dragged kicking and screaming into 
       that inevitable future, or whether they will walk openly 
       and honorably alongside those they've spent so long trying
       to exclude.
