Why it’s on the list: Kendall’s charge that mainstream feminism treats hunger, housing, schools and gun violence as somebody else’s issues when they are in fact the basic terms of most women’s lives.

Where I saw it: Recommended in a BookTok video by Carrie (@carriereadsbooks) that Kyle saved to his Apple Note “Books To Read” — his own note on the list: books to prepare for a Trump presidency. Video: https://www.tiktok.com/@carriereadsbooks/video/7434519243615472927
