Mikki Kendall's "Hood Feminism" boldly confronts mainstream feminism's blind spots, demanding attention to hunger, violence, and education. Named among Time's "100 Must-Read Books of 2020," it's what Elizabeth Gilbert calls "required reading for every white woman who calls herself a feminist."

When Mikki Kendall was six years old, her grandfather yanked her out of the path of a gunfight between strangers, saving her life. This moment encapsulates a reality many women face daily-where survival, not career advancement, defines their feminist concerns. While mainstream feminism debates corporate leadership and gender pay gaps, millions of women struggle with food insecurity, housing instability, and violence. These aren't peripheral issues-they're central feminist concerns that remain largely invisible in privileged feminist spaces. What happens when a movement claiming to represent all women consistently centers the experiences of its most privileged members? The consequences are devastating. For women in marginalized communities, "leaning in" isn't about breaking glass ceilings but securing basic education and economic opportunity. For women facing gun violence-particularly Black women, who experience the highest rates of gun homicide-feminist discourse about empowerment rings hollow without addressing immediate physical safety. The disconnect reveals a troubling pattern: mainstream feminism repeatedly asks women of color, poor women, and LGBTQ+ women to wait their turn for equality, promoting the false notion that white women's advancement will create a rising tide lifting all boats. But this one-size-fits-all approach actively alienates the very women the movement claims to serve.
