Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women White Feminists Forgot by Mikki Kendall
informative
fast-paced
I think this book is excellent. I haven't decided on where I land on in terms of rating nonfiction but I think this is a must read for anyone interested in intersectionality. Mikki Kendall discusses her topics with both personal anecdotes and research and I think she strikes a nice balance. She breaks down why white feminism is inherently flawed and how mainstream feminism needs major change to actually serve those who they claim to want to protect.
Moderate: Child abuse, Domestic abuse, Physical abuse, Racism, Sexual assault, Police brutality, Transphobia, and Homophobia
