A great book for confronting White Feminism in yourself if you've never done that before, and a good reminder for those of us that have already been trying to confront these things.

crackedspines_'s review against another edition

read for school, didn’t like nearly enough to read it all. I actually read a lot more than this but it wasn’t in order so it’s not really possible to track.

Minor: Ableism

I put most content warnings under “graphic” but I’m not sure how to categorize them. It’s not graphic in the sense of detailed descriptions of specific occurrences of each topic necessarily, but there are extensive discussions about these topics as a whole. Also, the chapters are fairly independent so not all CWs appear in all or even many chapters.

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.
