One of the most powerful and thought-provoking books I've ever read. Her treatment of the history of the women's liberation and black liberation movements and the ways in which they've variously interwoven and come apart is brilliant. Her rigorous attacks on the racist baggage of white feminism are astounding in their persuasiveness and clarity. The examples which she draws on to illustrate the plight of black people, and often black women in particular, throughout the history of the United States are horrifying and shocking, and her call for an anti-racist and anti-sexist socialism as the future of radical movements is inspiring. Now seems like exactly the right moment to read or re-read this important work.
