Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia by Sabrina Strings

challenging informative medium-paced

4.0

It was very informative but I would have appreciated some summaries of the chapters, at times I was a bit lost what the point of particular stories/chapter was besides "people changed their mind all the time about what is dangerous, thinness or fatness, and anti-fatness has definitive racial origins". But I'm really glad I listened to the book and I plan to read more about the topic.
