From the bestselling author of Brown Is the New White, an explosive new argument for draining the swamp of white male privilege

"Steve Phillips situates our present crisis exactly where it belongs-within the long, unfinished struggle to make real the promise that all are created equal. . . . He reminds us that backlash is not new, but neither is resistance." --Anna Malaika Tubbs, New York Times bestselling author of Erased and The Three Mothers

In a time when equal rights are facing an unparalleled assault, what if we've been framing the conversation about racial justice all wrong? Instead of focusing on the underrepresentation of people of color, what if we examined the overrepresentation of white men?


Building on the urgency and clarity of his New York Times and Washington Post bestseller Brown Is the New White and his "spirited and persuasive" (Publishers Weekly) How We Win the Civil War, these questions drive the explosive premise of author Steve Phillips's latest book, Are White Men Smarter Than Everybody Else?


Just six years after the racial reckoning that followed the murder of George Floyd, we are witnessing a full-scale assault on equality in America unparalleled since the overthrow of Reconstruction. With the critical 2026 midterms approaching and DEI initiatives under attack nationwide, Phillips's work is more relevant than ever. He moves beyond defensive measures to offer a powerful offensive strategy. The book introduces the concept of "Straight White American Male Preference" (S.W.A.M.P.) and systematically dismantles the myth of reverse racism.


Through twelve sharp, deeply researched chapters, Phillips reveals how this preference has shaped everything from corporate America and philanthropy to arts and government, creating systemic advantages for white men, who make up a minority (29 percent) of the U.S. population.


This isn't just another book about inequality; it's a playbook for a counterattack. Fearless and timely, this much-needed corrective offers equality-loving readers the arguments, data, and inspiration they need to challenge the status quo effectively.
