Lewis, Tiffany. Uprising: How Women Used the US West to Win the Right to Vote

Abstract

diversity and equity as the authors masterfully introduced relevant concepts and elaborated upon them throughout their writing. One of the missing pieces in the book that could be unpacked in class discussions is how oppressed identities among white women impact their approaches to anti-racist work and how these identities do not automatically exempt them from participating in or benefitting from white supremacy. Nevertheless, this book would benefit undergraduate and graduate students interested in learning about communicative practices that uphold racism. Ultimately, White Women seems most suited for white women who are mid-career and raising children (who the authors themselves identify as a target demographic), but also anyone who is willing to encounter constructive criticism and engage in dialogue with Black, Indigenous, and brown women, as well as with each other.
