À propos de cet audio

We are in the midst of a cultural moment. #MeToo. #BlackLivesMatter. #TransIsBeautiful. #AbleismExists. #EffYourBeautyStandards. Those of us who don't fit into the "mythical norm" (White, male, cisgender, able-bodied, slender, Christian, etc.) - which is to say, most of us - are demanding our basic right: to know that who we are matters. To belong.

Being "othered" and the body shame it spurs is not "just" a feeling. Being erased and devalued impacts our ability to regulate our emotions, our relationships with others, our health and longevity, our finances, our ability to realize dreams, and whether we will be accepted, loved, or even safe.

Radical Belonging is not a simple self-love treatise. Focusing only on self-love ignores the important fact that we have negative experiences because our culture has targeted certain bodies and people for abuse or alienation. For marginalized people, a focus on self-love can be a spoonful of sugar that makes the oppression go down. This groundbreaking book goes further, helping us to manage the challenges that stem from oppression and moving beyond self-love and into belonging.

Amazing book with valuable information about a variety of topics. Narration was not always smooth.

Great book, less than great narration

It felt like an academic read, which I wasnt quite prepared to listen to. I will need to read it a couple times to fully process the book, and I'm prepared to do that. What I loved about this edition is that Ijeoma Oluo, another person in a marginalized group wrote the forward. With this listen, Audible supported a marginalized group by asking Laquita James to narrate the book for us to hear.
