 It is so critically important to me that everyone in my life read this book.

Kate Manne never fails to get me absolutely FIRED UP! and this is no exception. Beautiful demonstration of the ways that fatness intersects with race, feminism, disability studies, capitalism, etc. It's accessible and practical philosophy. If you are a person in a body you need to read this book.
