this is a book i already know i will be revisiting time and again.

Dr. Brittney Cooper is SO GOOD at parsing the complex nuances of her Black feminist politics, (in)justice, and the ways in which our personal lives—friendship, intimacy, self-perception—are profoundly shaped by structural violence. there is something so radical, for me, in her articulate honesty.

beyond the depth, breadth, and poignance of her ideas, there is also such power in her delivery. her writing is cogent and accessible at both the intellectual and emotional levels. and Dr. Cooper sticks the landing EVERY single time: the final essay in this collection is but one uplifting example.
