Me, Not You

In Me, Not You, Alison Phipps critically examines the #MeToo movement, highlighting how it often centers the experiences and priorities of privileged White women while overlooking or marginalizing women of color, sex workers, and trans individuals. Phipps argues that this dynamic reflects a political whiteness that limits the movement’s revolutionary potential and can inadvertently support reactionary forces. The book explores how mainstream feminist strategies and media narratives sometimes sacrifice marginalized groups in pursuit of broader aims, raising important questions about solidarity and justice within social movements.
