been actively engaged on both sides of the debates. In Feminist Trouble, lonore Lpinard draws on extended fieldwork with numerous women's organizations in France and Quebec. Giving voice to women of color and white women, Lpinard dissects hierarchies of privilege, in particular whiteness, in
feminist politics, grappling with Islam and Islamic veiling debates to understand how these changes have transformed contemporary feminist movements, intersectional politics, and the feminist collective subject. A critical look at feminism, its divisions, and its future, Feminist Trouble argues that
feminism should not be centered around an identity-women-but should instead focus on a feminist ethic of responsibility which reckons with power asymmetries and requires women to prioritize their ethical responsibility to the feminist project.
