This book makes you consider that gaming has been and is still sexist, racist, and ablest. And more importantly how people from overlooked communities navigate with the rise of technology. It's recommended reading for those that care about gaming for marginalized people.

It starts very theory-heavy, but gets more engrossing and accessible as it progresses. The insights into the communities that gamers form for support, along with the horrendously explicit racism misogyny, were particularly memorable.
