Synopsis

You are entitled to your own opinions but not your own facts.

Wokelore is a thought-provoking collection of more than fifty articles, essays and stories you won’t find anywhere else. From the independent and fearless newspaper Byline Times, it transports you from 1970s Europe to Putin’s Russia, from the days of empire in Kenya to Brexit Britain, shedding light on America's political crisis and exposing the UK’s disastrous handling of COVID-19.<br />

The work collected here – from an impressive range of writers including Bonnie Greer, Anthony Barnett, Musa Okwonga, Otto English, Misha Glenny and Salena Godden – covers race, identity, disinformation, populism, the state of journalism, threats to our democracy and more, each piece offering a fresh take and new ideas.
