  • Historian Kevin M. Schultz published the book Why Everyone Hates White Liberals in 2024, tracing liberalism from Roosevelt to Kamala Harris and U.S. Political debates.
  • Schultz explains liberals face criticism from conservatives who see them as elitist and condescending, while the left criticizes them for lacking urgency and compromising too much.
  • The book highlights how conservatives built their movement on shared grievance against liberals, who symbolize a broad set of partisan and cultural concerns in America.
  • Schultz suggests that any new term replacing "liberal" should be deliberately broad to include support for regulated capitalism as well as acknowledge the difficulties posed by diversity to these principles.
  • Schultz warns liberals must quickly redefine their political identity or conservatives will seize it, underscoring an urgent struggle for the term’s meaning today.
