challenging emotional informative medium-paced

It's so important to hear stories from different perspectives, and to hear directly from groups that are so often marginalized. I found this book to be powerful not because it was trying to be inspirational (as it wasn't), but because it came from people sharing their own experiences. Parts of it left me encouraged, and parts left me outraged that events like those described happen to people, and not only that, but are fully allowed to happen within our current systems and laws. Thanks goes to the authors who shared their stories.
