Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism by bell hooks
challenging
informative
slow-paced
5.0
My first, but definitely not my last, bell hooks book. This book is borderline radical in 2023 standards, I cannot imagine the storm it caused when it was published.
bell hooks holds no punches and really evaluates and critiques on Black men and White women and their historical treatment of Black women.
I’ve read several intersectional feminist books but it was really refreshing to read a book entirely dedicated to Black women.
