Review Quotes:

"#UsToo is a much-needed work of religious alliance politics, which chronicles McGinity's journey to becoming a scholar-activist. In these pages, we learn about Mona Eltahawy, who was responsible for the hashtag #MosqueMeToo and a Twitter thread that revealed the enormity of the problem of Muslim women being violated in sacred spaces, as well as the organization In Shayk's Clothing that released a Code of Conduct for Islamic Leadership. And we are introduced to Sophia Nelson, who coined the "#UsToo" hashtag of McGinity's title to ensure that Black women's experiences were represented in the #MeToo movement. Kudos to this "persister" who forges interfaith feminist connections."
