Despite the language of their oppression being co-opted at every opportunity, BIPOC are rarely mentioned throughout the book. When BIPOC are mentioned, it is to serve one of two purposes, depending on their gender:
- Non-white men, of course, are the most violent of oppressors
- Non-white women show up as voices of wisdom to support whatever actions the white femme is taking at that moment.
The "history" isn't well researched either. Off the top of my head, I recall a whole bit about chastity belts, the use of which has been debunked. Of course, as a particularly cruel "invention," their creation was attributed to MENA men.
To sum up, if you say things like, "We are the daughters of the witches you didn't burn," or still wear your pussy hat with pride, you'll like this book. For everybody else, skip it.
