Summary

Ideology and Influence examines how ideologies gain traction by exploring the link between narratives and propaganda. It delves into the psychological vulnerabilities that make people susceptible to influence and how cultural contexts allow narratives to root, providing insights for understanding persuasion in today's society. 

 
The book highlights how propaganda manipulates psychological needs and uses existing cultural values to create shared identity, leading individuals to internalize beliefs deeply. The approach dissects ideological narratives and propaganda strategies, from rallies to subtle cultural techniques. It emphasizes that effective propaganda doesn't just inform; it leverages psychological vulnerabilities.

 
 Beginning with theoretical frameworks like cognitive dissonance and social identity theory, the book progresses through case studies to explore societal implications. Case studies from diverse contexts illustrate how propaganda mobilizes support, while the book also considers practical implications for critical evaluation and resisting manipulation. It offers insights into fostering media literacy and informed public discourse.

    A transparent first-hand account of a Black officer maneuvering through three terrifying yet rewarding decades of policing, all while seeking reform in law enforcement
		 
When 16-year-old Keith Merith finds himself pulled over, berated, and degraded by a white police officer, he’s outraged. He’s done nothing wrong. But the officer has the power, and he doesn’t. From that day on, he vows to join a police service and effect change from within.
		 
Twelve years and a multitude of infuriating applications later, Merith is finally hired by York Regional Police. Subjected to unfair treatment and constant microaggressions, he perseveres and gradually rises through the ranks, his goal of systemic change carrying him through. After a stellar career, Merith retires at the rank of superintendent, but his desire for sustained and equitable reform is stronger than ever.
		 
In A Darker Shade of Blue, Merith shares both his gut-wrenching and heart-warming experiences and advocates for immediate police reform in a balanced and level-headed manner. He praises the people in blue, but he also knows on a visceral level that there are deep issues that need to be rectified — starting with recruitment. He knows that law enforcement agencies should reflect the communities they serve and protect, and that all citizens should be treated equally. Entrusted with the duty to serve, Merith delivers an evocative perspective of policing by providing the opportunity to walk in his shoes, as a Black man, and as a police officer on the front lines.
