Description
Aubrey Gordon's powerful critique of the systemic and cultural bias faced by plus-size individuals is presented in this thought-provoking book. Gordon argues that anti-fatness is pervasive in society, leading to denial of basic needs and human rights for those who are fat. She calls for social justice movements to be inclusive of plus-sized people's experiences, advocating for policies such as equal access to healthcare and an end to anti-fat violence.
