Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge, Consciousness, and the Politics of Empowerment by Patricia Hill Collins

5.0

4.5 - some outdated bits, but overall this book means a lot to general feminist theory. it's really well-written and more accessible than a lot of baseline feminist theory, which is done intentionally. I'm glad I read the second edition - the preface alone was really meaningful, and it's lovely to see Collins actively expanding her past work to be more and more applicable to contemporary structures and ideas. will probably reference in essays/videos in the future, it's definitely a wonderful background for Black and intersectional feminism, and would recommend to anyone.
