bell hooks holds no punches and really evaluates and critiques on Black men and White women and their historical treatment of Black women.
I’ve read several intersectional feminist books but it was really refreshing to read a book entirely dedicated to Black women.

This is a crucial text, a bedrock text, that I think everyone should read if they are interested in antiracism and understanding the need for intersectionality. hooks writes with such clarity that makes it easy to understand the history of how Black women have been treated in America. I think everyone would benefit from reading this book and that it should be mandatory reading.
