Panics and Persecutions: 20 Quillette Tales of Excommunication in the Digital Age

In an age when telling the wrong joke or using the wrong pronoun can cost you your career Quillette magazine - founded in 2015 by Australian-based journalist Claire Lehmann - has provided a forum for thinkers of all political stripes to push back against the forces of intellectual conformity. Panics and Persecutions brings together a collection of especially compelling Quillette narratives spanning subcultures from computer science to romance literature. These stories lay bare the human toll of modern ideological inquisitions often in deeply personal terms-and demonstrate the urgency of Quillettes editorial mission to create a space where free thought lives.
