Feminist Fight Club: An Office Survival Manual for a Sexist Workplace by Jessica Bennett
5.0
Who should read it: Anyone who works in anything that vaguely resembles some kind of office.
Why you should read it: This book gives women practical tactical advice for succeeding in the workplace, while also breaking down the gendered behaviors which make succeeding as a woman (especially a woman of color) much more difficult. There is even a section for men, on how to be a good workplace ally. All this is accomplished with fun illustrations and hilarious descriptions and storytelling.
Don't read if: You're one of these "meninists" who can't be swayed by scientific evidence
Great quote: “Recognizing sexism is harder than it once was. Like the micro-aggressions that people of color endure daily—racism masked as subtle insults or dismissals—today’s sexism is insidious, casual, politically correct, even friendly.”
