About this listen

Don Watson takes us on a journey of indignation and how it has been expressed in his forebears. His ire towards US politicians has a new moving target: Donald Trump. The US President's primary pitch had less to do with giving people money or security than it was about vengeance. Trump exploited the anger we feel when we are slighted or taken for granted, turning the politics of a sophisticated democracy into something more like a blood feud. He promised to restore their dignity, slay their enemies, re-make the world according to old rites and customs. He stirred their indignation into tribal rage and rode it into the White House. It was a scam, of course, but wherever there is indignation, lies and stupidity abound.©2019 Don Watson (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing

Critic reviews

'No matter what beast Don Watson has in view, his writing is a joy to read. On Indignation is light in the dark, port in the storm, water in the desert.' (Lewis Lapham)
