But debate culture is toxic for anyone that isn’t a white male. And it was at times for me. This book gets it 100% to a T. The absolute gaslighting. The lack of boundaries. The fear of confronting uncomfortable moments because you don’t want to make waves. The power imbalance that exists in most rooms you enter, and the discomfort along with it.
I don’t know where I’m going with this except to say that this book resonated with me in ways I never expected it to. It will stick with me for a long time.
