À propos de cet audio
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“The fights against hunger, homelessness, poverty, health disparities, poor schools, homophobia, transphobia, and domestic violence are feminist fights. Kendall offers a feminism rooted in the livelihood of everyday women.”—Ibram X. Kendi, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of How to Be an Antiracist, in The Atlantic
“One of the most important books of the current moment.”—Time
“A rousing call to action... It should be required reading for everyone.”—Gabrielle Union, author of We’re Going to Need More Wine
A potent and electrifying critique of today's feminist movement announcing a fresh new voice in Black feminism.
Today's feminist movement has a glaring blind spot, and paradoxically, it is women. Mainstream feminists rarely talk about meeting basic needs as a feminist issue, argues Mikki Kendall, but food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. All too often, however, the focus is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few. That feminists refuse to prioritize these issues has only exacerbated the age-old problem of both internecine discord and women who rebuff at carrying the title. Moreover, prominent White feminists broadly suffer from their own myopia with regard to how things like race, class, sexual orientation, and ability intersect with gender. How can we stand in solidarity as a movement, Kendall asks, when there is the distinct likelihood that some women are oppressing others?
In her searing collection of essays, Mikki Kendall takes aim at the legitimacy of the modern feminist movement arguing that it has chronically failed to address the needs of all but a few women. Drawing on her own experiences with hunger, violence, and hypersexualization, along with incisive commentary on politics, pop culture, the stigma of mental health, and more, Hood Feminism delivers an irrefutable indictment of a movement in flux. An unforgettable debut, Kendall has crafted a ferocious clarion call to all would-be feminists to live out the true mandate of the movement in thought and in deed.

Named a Best Book of 2020 by Bustle, BBC, and Time
A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020
“In prose that is clean, crisp, and cutting, Kendall reveals how feminism has both failed to take into account populations too often excluded from the banner of feminism and failed to consider the breadth of issues affecting the daily lives of millions of women. . . . Throughout, Kendall thoughtfully and deliberately takes mainstream feminism to task . . . [but] if Hood Feminism is a searing indictment of mainstream feminism, it is also an invitation. For every case in which Kendall highlights problematic practices, she offers guidance for how we can all do better.”—NPR
“With poise and clarity, Kendall lays out the case for why feminists need to fight not just for career advancement but also for basic needs and issues that often plague women of color, including food security, educational access, a living wage and safety from gun violence. In expertly tying the racial justice and feminist movements together, Kendall’s is one of the most important books of the current moment.”—Time, “100 Must-Read Books of 2020”
“Hood Feminism paints a brutally candid and unobstructed portrait of mainstream white feminism: a narrow movement that disregards the needs of the overwhelming majority of women. In the storied tradition of Black feminism stretching back to Maria Stewart, Kendall persuasively contends that women’s basic needs are feminist issues. The fights against hunger, homelessness, poverty, health disparities, poor schools, homophobia, transphobia, and domestic violence are feminist fights. Kendall offers a feminism rooted in the livelihood of everyday women.”—Ibram X. Kendi, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of How to Be an Antiracist, in The Atlantic

MUST BUY
Don't question it, just buy it. One of if not the most insightful and beautiful book I've ever read/listened to, 10/10 would recommend if you're a human that breathes air.

it's a true approach to an egalitarian answer.
it is everything that modern feminism blinds us to. I want everyone to read this if they truly are "for women".

Verbalized my thoughts and feelings
before I read this book, I thought I'd go mad with rage over the inequality I saw in my life and in the lives of my loved ones. It helped shine a light over how intricate racism is deep rooted in the world as a whole but more importantly, it showed how I can challenge and help change the world for the better!

A Great Read
Mikki Kendall does a fantastic job of highlighting how many women are left out of feminism both past and present. Her weaving personal stories throughout really brings the book to life.
There is a lot of inconsistency in how the book is “performed” throughout. Sometimes midway through a chapter her voice sounds completely different. This was a bit distracting but did not take away from the overall quality of the book.
Highly recommend.

amazing, must read
if you are a white woman who is looking to learn how to use your privledge to be a better ally, this is the book for you. a lot of the things mentioned I was aware of already, but the way the author talks about these subjects really gives a lot of perspective. it was a good reminder to reevaluate how I am using my privledge to amplify the voices of marginalized people and not centering my experience
