"Amidst the increasing visibility of online and offline misogyny, misogynoir, and anti-feminism, we are so fortunate to have this volume to help us navigate these terrains of struggle and violence. White and Negra have gathered an impressive group of scholars who approach anti-feminism from a variety of angles, from whiteness to Black feminism to embodied joy. The book is well-organized, compelling, and a crucial contribution to feminist scholarship."
