Keep Marching: How Every Woman Can Take Action and Change Our World by Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner
3.0
Written by one of the founders of the Women's March, Keep Marching is a primer on how we can stay involved, and more importantly WHY we should stay involved. Written in fairly easy to read text (think less textbook, more informational text) this will appeal to women who are struggling with feeling defeated and knowing what to do next.
I was hoping this would appeal to teens as well, but I don't think it really will, it is definitely geared towards adults (I kind of felt specifically white adults). New Adults will find this book tremendously useful though. I received an ebook galley of this, and have to say it was not very visually appealing. I was hoping for color and eye-catching imagery. I got several black and white graphs. There is a lot of very useful information laid out in this book, but it's laid out as giant blocks of text. Adding in color and breaking up the giant blocks of text would have made the book more accessible, which is a huge part of this book, so the author/editor missed their own point a bit. Hopefully the print version addresses this a bit (galley ebooks often miss a bit, so I'm hopeful.)
Ultimately this is a decent book, well written, and helpful.
