Reading this book is the best way to erase any automatic discomfort with its title.

This book is about how it is not just unhelpful but in fact harmful to feminist causes when those who do the work center white feminism in it. When feminists who are white are presumed to be the experts, and when the experiences of white women are the focus.

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.
