Critiques

Thank you to #NetGalley and #Hachette for making an advance copy available.

This is such a smart, necessary book. Jessica Wilson has written an incisive, practical, and wise analysis of diet industries, wellness, and health discourse in our time, reminding us whose interests are served and whose are not (spoiler: Black women’s are not). She flips all of the diet and health discourse and puts Black women and femmes at the center of her analysis and recommendations.

The book is also a delight to read, written in an engaging, almost-conversational style. Wilson’s analysis integrates personal stories, interviews, and case studies of her clients, in her distinctive voice.

I really hope It’s Always Been Ours is widely read by those who most need to read it — especially professionals who work with clients who are dealing with eating disorders.
