5.0

Honestly, the most brilliant part of this is Kuang laying bare for everyone how the whole machine of publishing is complicit when something bigoted gets through the stages of the process to end up as a printed book on shelves. This must have been so challenging and so fun to write—that's how it is to read, which I mean as high praise. I hope I learned some stuff.
