In "Hood Feminism," Mikki Kendall critiques mainstream feminism arguing that the feminist movement does not focus on the basic needs of all women. Kendall defines feminism as "the work that you do, and the people you do it for who matter more than anything else" (Kendall, 2020, p.xiii). She focuses on the experiences of marginalized communities and the issues they face as the key to the equality of all women. In eighteen chapters Kendall engages with topics including gun violence, hunger, education, housing, colorism/racism, and reproductive justice. The text represents a critical, meaningful critique of mainstream feminism as a call to action for it to respond to all women's needs.
