Against White Feminism: Wie 'weißer' Feminismus Gleichberechtigung verhindert by Rafia Zakaria
vacantbones's review against another edition
3.0
A thought-provoking, fascinating read with relevant information that I almost can't believe I haven't considered before (thinking about the comparisons drawn between honor killings and domestic violence in the US). Though I didn't necessarily agree with every single point in the text, it's important to challenge your beliefs and readjust them as you grow and learn. The writing itself wasn't for me, with certain parts feeling repetitive and wordy, but overall a solid read.

Strangely, Zakaria and Steele (White Guilt) aren't that far off from each other, even though they are labeled at opposite ends of the spectrum.

I found myself nodding constantly in agreement and in stunned surprise. A very accessible book that is so well researched and well argued. I stayed up until 3am as I couldn’t put it down! Probably my favourite book to date.

In many ways, nothing in this book is new. I've been reading a lot of these ideas more and more over the last few years luckily. Because I am a product of a PWI women's studies program and spent my life in high ed where we like to think we have it all figured out with our diversity committee. But it is very much for show and books like this truly call it out and remind me to be more aware of it and to figure out every day how to best ask everyone involved, "what do you actually need me to do?" and now just assume I know what I need to do in order to be the best ally my introverted, conflict adverse self can be.
