This is such an important read, so I really took my time with it. I’m happy that I’ve taken these weeks to read it little by little so I’m taking in the information and not just breezing through it. I found it to be super informative and super readable!

This book digs into a wide array of topics and how they intertwine due and how topical solutions don't really address the systemic roots of racism. I really enjoyed the book. It felt like calling out and restating things I already knew but it REALLY outlined how so many problems tie into each other.

Should be mandatory reading for every white feminist. This is an amazingly educational book on so many topics like gun violence, access to healthcare, food deserts, voter suppression, and more - all through a feminist lens. The biggest thing I felt at the end -- if your feminism isn't intersectional, it is not really feminism.

Really important piece of feminist literature. Forces readers to examine how poverty,race,education,health, etc are feminist issues. Some parts felt a little repetitive, but overall a really good read.
