A review by stormy
Black Sexual Politics: African Americans, Gender, and the New Racism by Patricia Hill Collins
Did not finish book.
1.0
So a few years ago I read a couple of pages from the beginning, the bit with the movie theater. It got me curious.
The first thing that I noticed when I started reading this? It's binarist and cis-sexist. A few years ago I wouldn't have notice and most likely wouldn't have even known those words. Now I can't help but notice. But ok, I read further, preparing myself for sexuality as in gay or straight and nothing more. I get up till page 16 where I see "lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgenderED". Yeah, nope. I expected better.
