"While today's culture presents canceling others' opinions as the solution to their problems, they don't realize that a culture of canceling eventually cancels culture entirely," Brave Books, the publishing company said when describing the book, the fourth in a series by the Texas Republican.īrave Books told the Washington Examiner in an email Tuesday that it is "so proud to partner with Congressman Dan Crenshaw to tackle the crucial issue of cancel culture which is ripping this country apart." People who disobey the rules are banished from the city on a "raft of shame." The book draws from Crenshaw's lived experiences and biblical themes, such as one story teaching about intentions and forgiveness that was inspired by Crenshaw's rocky relationship with comedian Pete Davidson. The book, released Tuesday, centers on an underwater city that is protected by seaweed. "Did the person intend you harm, or did they just make a really dumb joke that just didn't land right? Are they being canceled and yelled at because of something they did or said that was maybe clumsy and maybe stupid - and maybe they should apologize for - but they didn't mean any harm toward anybody? Cancel culture often jumps to that conclusion: that the person is intentionally bad, intentionally meant that microaggression … and it's just not true."ĮLIZABETH WARREN TO RELEASE CHILDREN'S BOOK ABOUT A WOMAN RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT


"Intent is a really important question that I don't know if people ask these days," he told Fox News. The Texas Republican wrote a children's book, Fame, Blame, and the Raft of Shame, that "explore cancel culture and the effect it has on society," drawing on experiences from Crenshaw's life. Dan Crenshaw wants to turn the page on cancel culture.
