Contrived writing and very inconsistent characterizations.
Revisado: 10-26-24
The amount of deus ex machina was infuriating. Zero stakes. The tone of characters seemed to switch on a dime and not give any real depth to them. I really wanted to like this book... I'm disappointed.

What is feminism? In this short, accessible primer, Bell Hooks explores the nature of feminism and its positive promise to eliminate sexism, sexist exploitation, and oppression. With her characteristic clarity and directness, Hooks encourages readers to see how feminism can touch and change their lives - to see that feminism is for everybody.

He has been haunted for years by an audio clip of a cyborg named Felipe and is intent on writing Felipe’s biography. In the clip, Felipe can only recite that he was made in America, but Tomas must find out: Where was the Self-made Man really from?

This hit me so hard.

This started in a very interesting sci-fi place and ended with me in tears over the erasure of a human beings existence. Short and beautiful.

Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all.

Great book for people interested to really learn
Revisado: 04-27-21
I feel like oftentimes people of color aren't listened to when we talk about our negative experiences because white folks aren't aware of how it impacts them as well. This book sheds enormous light on that fact and dispels the zero sum rhetoric that is used so often to justify everything from workplace discrimination, union busting, home ownership, and police violence.
This book is recommended to any person that wants to examine their own biases and understand what racism truly does.
Heather McGhee's cadence is easy to follow and a great listening experience overall.
