Aubrey Gordon unearths the cultural attitudes and social systems that have led to people being denied basic needs because they are fat and calls for social justice movements to be inclusive of plus-sized people's experiences. By sharing her experiences as well as those of others, Aubrey concludes that to be fat in our society is to be seen as an undeniable failure, unlovable, unforgivable, and morally condemnable. This is an explosive indictment of the systemic and cultural bias facing plus-size people that will move us toward creating an agenda for fat justice.
