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.

What I enjoyed so much about this book is it forces us to challenge not only white feminism and white s*premacy, but to ask ourselves what is actually being centered in feminism altogether, especially to those who consider ourselves allies not just to women who look like us. This book helps us all learn about how white s*premacy, cissexism, classism, and other isms have seeped into every aspect of women's lives (cis, trans, gnc), aspects we do not necessarily consider feminist because some of the most sensationalized feminist topics include abortion, sexual objectification, or gender roles. Instead, or rather more fiercely, we need to address, discuss, and combat issues of survival for ALL women such as gun violence, poverty and a lack of quality healthcare.
This book is for everyone also who thinks that just because we aren't Karens, that we can't embody some characteristics of Karens in feminism.
