"Journalist Hamad’s commanding debut examines the ways in which white feminism upholds white supremacy ... searing & effective."
~ BuzzFeed
"Hamad offers a haunting but powerful reading of white feminism and its lasting impacts on marginalized communities.”
~ TIME
"A comprehensive look at the ways in which women of color have been dismissed by society... this book should be required reading."
