Description: Argues that counter-disinformation strategies based in nostalgia for racialized "civility" are insufficient and advocates for centering the knowledge of oppressed communities to develop survival strategies that resist disinformation.

Review Quotes: "Tetreault builds off of post-truth/disinformation literature, rhetoric of race scholarship, new media studies, and literature from the activist community itself to show how contemporary post-truth is the digital incarnation of a much longer US history of disinformation." --Armond Towns, author of On Black Media Philosophy
