The Intersectional Environmentalist: How to Dismantle Systems of Oppression to Protect People + Planet by Leah Thomas

challenging informative medium-paced

4.0

Now having finished reading, I understand many of the reviews of this book, which include praises and some specific criticisms. Overall, a solid introduction to the topics relating to intersectional environmentalism, but it is a fair comment that those familiar with these topics may view this book as review.

The references and additional environmentalists included in the book are helpful in building up more citations, but I almost wish there were more co-authors. Generally, the author is writing from personal expertise while including many other voices - something that is appreciated, but indicative that this book could have benefitted from multiple authors or to be written as part of a larger collection. That being said, I look forward to revisiting the resource hub for the Intersectional Environmentalist website.
