The book is authentically researched, and very well written to hold your attention, as you write down notes on
what you’ve read. I virtually read half of it in one sitting, before finishing.

I listened to Wes speak at a college this past year and knew I had to check out his book as soon as it was available.
He writes the way he speaks, making this book feel more like a dialogue than most books I've read.
Very refreshing.


 rarely take the time to do reviews, but after reading this book I want to encourage everyone I can to read it since
​I now feel so passionate about the information and knowledge I gained.

 BOOK OVERVIEW
What do Taylor Swift, Cognitive Psychology, Gucci Mane, Dissent, and The Most Dangerous Person Alive have in common? The answer is the "Hater Mindset". In "Be A Hater" Dr. Parham examines the emergence of the "Hater Mindset" in contemporary culture. Be A Hater delves into a subtle and subconscious cultural shift in the concept of a "hater". The shift from viewing a "hater" as someone trying to hold you back or stop you from succeeding to viewing a "hater" as anyone who disagrees or  dissents from your opinion. This shift While Subtle has strong implications for critical thinking, the value of relationships, an individual's happiness, cognitive entitlement, and more. In "Be A Hater" Dr. Parham brings this subconscious shift to the surface and equips the reader to counter its effects by challenging them to "Be A Hater!"


What People are Saying about "Be A Hater"


I'm a Hater, Too! Right book. Right time. "Be A Hater" makes us think about how we handle dissent and why it is imperative for us to engage with those who hold differing points of view. Dr. Parham offers a new twist on an old idea, a point of view that is desperately needed in today's culture.
(Plus, how could I resist reading how Taylor Swift is
​"the most dangerous person in the world".)

This book is not only entertaining, but educates the reader in an incredibly unique voice. It is immensely useful for helping generationally and ethnically diverse readers to develop better understandings of each other and enter into discourse that could bring about positive change for the community
