This book was one of the most eye-opening lenses into feminism I've read. The information was presented succinctly without being overwhelming, but definitely provides pages and pages of evidence, statistics, and historical facts to illustrate the need for intersectional feminism that centers Black women in particular, and communities of color in general. A great reference book, and a great intro into the huge topic of intersectional feminism and how feminism could and should pave the way to a better world.

This book digs into a wide array of topics and how they intertwine due and how topical solutions don't really address the systemic roots of racism. I really enjoyed the book. It felt like calling out and restating things I already knew but it REALLY outlined how so many problems tie into each other.
