Girl is a collection of essays (including some guest essays) that explores what it means to be a Black woman in a white-centric world; it dissects the fashion industry, finding a sense of community, identity and respectability politics, online activism and much more. A faultless and highly accessible read, it addresses the many issues tied to race and class that still exist in the West but it also celebrates Black girl/womanhood in a way that was inspiring to read about.
