Ms July 2020 Reads for the Rest of Us

Each month, I provide Ms. readers with a list of new books being published by writers from historically underrepresented groups.
The aims of these lists are threefold:
I want to do my part in the disruption of what has been the acceptable "norm" in the book world for far too long—white, cis, heterosexual, male;
I want to amplify amazing works by writers who are women, womxn, Black, Indigenous, Latinx, APIA/AAPI, international, LGBIA+, TGNC, queer, disabled, fat, immigrant, Muslim, neurodivergent, sex-positive or of other historically marginalized identities—you know, the rest of us; and
I want to challenge and encourage you all to buy, borrow and read them!
At times, I've included cishet white women writers on this list if their books focus on feminism, rape culture, gender-based violence, etc. But not this month. Now more than ever, we need to read and buy books by women of color, and let's continue to buy books by Black women writers.
