Okay, I LOVED this.
This is a an extremely impactful collection of essays written by a diverse group of intersectional feminists. It really made me stop and think, reflect on what I am doing as a feminist and how I can be louder and more inclusive. Whilst the issues raised in these essays have been around for years and years (domestic violence, harassment, racism, ableism and so much more), it highlights how heightened they have become as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
I really enjoyed the different formats in here too: essays, sort stories, poetry and interviews. Also, there is a list of book recommendations from each writer, which I appreciated. It really added to the reading experience.
Overall, this was very powerful book that I would recommend to everyone, everybody can learn something from this.
Thank you to the publishers for my proof copy in exchange for an honest review!
