Performative Outrage delivers a piercing examination of how manufactured fury is eroding the foundations of democracy. Drawing from experience in public administration and backed by profound insights, Brooks Williams reveals how local government, the most direct and impactful form of governance—is being paralyzed by social media theatrics, fear-driven decision-making, and the relentless churn of outrage cycles. With searing clarity, he deconstructs the anatomy of performative anger, exposes its enablers, and traces its devastating consequences for trust, leadership, and community cohesion.
