Wholesale Bad Feminist : Roxane Gay

Essays | Paperback | Original format “Pink is my favorite color. I used to say my favorite color was black to be cool, but it is pink-all shades of pink. I read Vogue, and I’m not doing it ironically, though it might seem that way. I once live-tweeted the September issue.” In these funny and insightful essays, Roxane Gay takes us through the journey of her evolution as a woman (Sweet Valley High) of color (The Help) while also taking readers on a ride through culture of the last few years (Girls, Django in Chains) and commenting on the state of feminism today (abortion, Chris Brown). The portrait that emerges is not only one of an incredibly insightful woman, continually growing to understand herself and our society.
