Authoritarianism By Design: America’s Blueprint to Mute the Marginalized

What happens when freedom is just a brand—and democracy a memory?

Authoritarianism by Design is a searing and timely historical fiction novel that exposes the engineered erosion of democracy in modern-day America. Through the lives of Black, Latino, Asian, and White citizens—students, veterans, immigrants, mothers, and resistance leaders—author Michael J. Henderson weaves a powerful narrative that explores systemic oppression, political corruption, and the fight for justice in a society that was never designed to be equal.

From backroom deals to constitutional crises, from the silencing of dissent to the rewriting of truth, this novel lays bare the mechanics of power: how laws are weaponized, fear is marketed, and freedom is sold to the highest bidder. At the heart of the story is a resistance—a coalition of ordinary people who refuse to be erased, choosing instead to rise, resist, and reclaim their voices.

Both hauntingly prophetic and unapologetically raw, this is more than fiction—it’s a call to action.

Perfect for readers who appreciate:

Political fiction with real-world relevance

Narratives about race, power, and activism

Social justice storytelling with emotional depth

The courage of everyday heroes and marginalized voices
