Feminism

An incisive, inspiring history of self-serving white feminists and the women who continually defied them to build a feminism for all, The history of feminism has usually been told through the lives and victories of white women. In The Trouble with White Women, Schuller argues these women created a white-feminist politics that dispossessed the most marginalized to liberate themselves. She brings to life the two-hundred-year counterhistory of feminism told through stories of Black, Indigenous, Latina, poor, queer, and trans women. Their lives, setbacks, and visionary politics hold important lessons, reminding us that the struggle for gender justice can only succeed in partnership with other fights for justice.
