Well, That Escalated Quickly: Memoirs and Mistakes of an Accidental Activist by Franchesca Ramsey
4.0
HOLY SHIT. I WON MY FIRST GOODREADS BOOK. So excited to read this. *tear*
Okay. So thank you goodreads for picking me - ME - to review this book (and the dozen of others who have read it, you get appraise too). But seriously, I am proud to finally be one of those people who can write a goodreads review for a book I got for free.
Franchesca is a familiar name to me. Mainly because I hivemind on ONTD and that's how I found out about her. I watched her publicity rise and supported her through and through. All though he has made mistakes here and there, she is one of my favorite ladies to listen to when it comes to feminism and woc rights.
I being a white girl can and will never understand what woc of face, but reading her book, I am allowed to see where I stand where I am needed. Her book is not only like a self-help book, it's a tale about a girl who was thrown into the world of activism without actually trying to be one in the beginning. She humbly admits her faults, her struggles, her fears and comes clean about a few things. Better yet, she takes her haters head on and allows me, the reader, to find better ways to get around those ugly conversations you have with friends who are not on the same mindset as you are regarding race and equality.
I really recommend her book and will always look forward to anything else she releases. <3
