Hood Feminism / Mikki Kendall / 2020
Published during the Trump era, this is great introductory text to Black Feminism for our era. Sprawling through eating disorders, gun violence, education and universal healthcare, she makes sure to cover it all with sometimes biting and always unflinching honesty. Great balance of memoir and research. Lower rating mostly bc I feel like I only learned one thing from this book: there's an unfortunate alliance between pro birth activists and some parts of the disabled movement bc pro-choice folks too frequently sympathize with the genocidal arguments of terminating disabled fetuses. 3/5
