In Store Now! Against White Feminism
In store now! Against White Feminism, by Rafia Sakaria
In the vein of bell hooks and Angela Y. Davis before her, Rafia Sakaria’s Against White Feminism is a thrilling and essential addition to the discourse. Sakaria refutes TERF-dom and exclusionary practices which have plagued contemporary discourse, proposing instead a feminism which is at once intersectional, transnational, and radically inclusive. Riveting, egalitarian, and inspiration, Against White Feminism is a must read!

Against White Feminism by Rafia Sakaria
Hardback £14.99
An essential, comprehensive account of what white feminism is - and an empowering manifesto for revolution. Feminism is supposed to be the fight for the freedom and equality of women.And in the past 200 years it has made incredible gains: paving the way for women to advance economically, handing them back control of their own bodies, and advocating for their needs and their experiences. But not for all women. Since its very beginning, mainstream feminism has catered to a particular group of women: middle class, cis-gendered, Western, and above all, white. And the exclusion of everyone outside this narrow category is not merely an oversight, a coincidence, a slip. It is baked into the way feminism works. This must change.
White supremacy is killing feminism. Until all of us are free and equal in society, none of us are. The power to transform it lies with each one of us.

We are back open six days a week, with the whole store open for browsing. We will still of course be taking customer orders and you will still be able to buy food and cleaning products online through our online store.
We are able to be open 6 days a week again because of your consideration and care whilst in the shop. Though things are opening up, covid cases are still high and a lot of our staff have only received one jab. So we are asking customers to continue to leave that extra space, sanitise their hands and pull on their mask. We really appreciate it.
