The Body Is Not an Apology: The Power of Radical Self-Love book bySonya Renee Taylor
By Sonya Renee TaylorIn a revolutionary departure from everything we've been told about body-positivity, The Body Is Not an Apology founder Sonya Renee Taylor forges the inextricable bond between radical self-love and social justice. Systems of oppression thrive off of our inability to make peace with bodies and difference. When we develop the ability to honor difference and radically accept ourselves, we have the capacity and desire to apply those skills to the larger world. Radical self love not only dismantles shame and self loathing in us, but has the power to dismantle global systems of injustice, because when we make true peace with our bodies, only then do we have the capacity to truly make peace with the bodies of the others. The purpose of this book is to get us to stop treating our bodies like cars, to stop acting as if our minds are not part of our bodies. Reading this book will move us beyond these fraught and all-too-often hidden lives, where we easily forget that we are whole humans having whole human experiences in our bodies. Published By on 2018
