I found out about the author via her tiktok account knitting cult lady
I want it first known i read only the part about the army because I've been encountering a lot of microaggressions lately over the military & i didn't have time to listen to the first 2 parts because of that recent crisis.
This book helped clarify how a lot of these horrible laws such as the no water laws were normalized in the military before they became laws. I often call racial capitalist patriarchy a dictatorship of war rape & the history of plantations bears that out, though she didn't necessarily know USAmerican history before joining.
