Summary

"Racialized women and girls often feel racial injustice before they have the words to name it. Gulzar Charania situates women of colour at the heart of this book, sharing the lasting impacts and exacting costs of racism in their lives. She highlights how the elasticity of white supremacy invites people of colour to be its accomplices, how interlocking forms of oppression force racialized queer women to calibrate the risk of expressing their sexuality, and how schools and the nation inform the development of racial literacy. Told through a clear analytic lens, Fighting Feelings is a critical and necessary consideration of the toll of racism in women's lives."--
