kathleen_theresa's review
I overlooked A LOT of white and financial privilege but at three quarters of the way it was too much. Furthermore, books like these that offer so little depth into poverty, classism, and child abuse allow these critically important issues to continue to be overlooked and minimized. Collectively it’s shameful this book is as popular as it is as it’s likely contributing to the siloed views of the privileged.
Graphic: Classism, Child abuse, and Violence
