capypokoymal reviewed Feminism, Interrupted by Lola Olufemi
Pretty sure the author is an anarchist.
5 stars
The book doesn't actually really say anything new. But the way they say it. Oh mama! Please radicalise me all, radicalise me now.

Lola Olufemi explores state violence against women, the fight for reproductive justice, transmisogyny, gendered Islamophobia and solidarity with global struggles, showing that the fight for gendered liberation can change the world for everybody when we refuse to think of it solely as women's work. Including testimonials from Sisters Uncut, migrant groups working for reproductive justice, prison abolitionists and activists involved in the international fight for Kurdish and Palestinian rights, Olufemi emphasises the link between feminism and grassroots organising.
