As Brittney Cooper writes in Eloquent Rage, “I have too much feminist shit to do to spend my time hating white women. Any time a white woman says something wrong in the public sphere these days, there is an army of Black feminist writers at the ready with think pieces that can snatch her wig and have her picking her face up off the floor months later. Going after white women online will get you lots of clicks and likes. But you’ll feel exhausted at the end and, often, white women’s attitudes won’t have changed one iota.”
