White Tears / Brown Scars: How White Feminism Betrays Women of Color by Ruby Hamad

5.0

This book does a remarkable job of looking at white women’s role in the persistence of white supremacy. Ruby Hamad outlines where white women are just as complicit in being a driving force behind some aspects of racism as white men using stories and research. The book was engaging, illuminating, and emotionally challenging to read. But, to transform the world, we must scrutinize and acknowledge the hurtful, problematic things and make the necessary changes to deal with white supremacy in our institutions and in our everyday lives.
