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.

zombiezami's review against another edition

4.0

As someone who's pretty well versed in feminism in general and Black feminism/womanism in particular, I didn't really find much of the information in this groundbreaking or revelatory. That being said, to a lot of others, it might be. I'd recommend this to someone who is just learning about feminism or who hasn't had much experience with WOC feminism. I thought the author did an excellent job of mixing research, care, and personal experiences.

This is a tough read at times, but so incredibly necessary. White feminism often makes itself out to be feminism as a whole, but there are a lot of missing pieces that this book starts to highlight. Read it!
