THE TROUBLE WITH WHITE WOMEN A Counterhistory of Feminism

After Mela Lee's enthusiastic narration of the foreword, Christine Lakin's pitch-perfect performance is a great fit for this political exposé. Sounding intelligent and inviting, her spot-on interpretations and astute phrasing gently signal the scholarly and moral underpinnings of the author's insights. Kyla Schuller, who teaches women's, gender, and sexuality studies at Rutgers, shows how the self-serving and exclusionary aspects of the Women's Movement have consistently refused to address the rights of women of color and women with nonstandard gender identifications. More broadly, her research describes many tragic examples of America's still powerful caste system. This audiobook, buoyed by Lakin's top-shelf narration, shows how courageous Black women refused to be silent when mainstream gender equality initiatives sacrificed minority women's rights to advance white women's interests.
