I love how the author used personal stories to support and give life to statistics. The audiobook was read by the author and you could feel her emotions coming though, very impactful.  The subtle and blatant call out of specific white “feminists” was almost cathartic. A very important book.

As someone who's pretty well versed in feminism in general and Black feminism/womanism in particular, I didn't really find much of the information in this groundbreaking or revelatory. That being said, to a lot of others, it might be. I'd recommend this to someone who is just learning about feminism or who hasn't had much experience with WOC feminism. I thought the author did an excellent job of mixing research, care, and personal experiences.

This is a tough read at times, but so incredibly necessary. White feminism often makes itself out to be feminism as a whole, but there are a lot of missing pieces that this book starts to highlight. Read it!
