In this episode, I talk about some views and learning from Ruby Hamad's book - White Tears, Brown Scars. How White Feminism Betrays Women of Color.

It's a super insightful book that tbh made me feel a lot of emotions, mostly anger and sadness around how women of colour are and have been treated over the last few hundreds of years (and more) not only by white men but by white women too.

You can find this book here: https://www.rubyhamad.com/

And you can find the article that she wrote around this here: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/may/08/how-white-women-use-strategic-tears-to-avoid-accountability
