"This book is a true love letter, not only to Jha's own son but also to all of our sons and to the parents--especially mothers--who raise them.”—Ijeoma Oluo, author of So You Want to Talk About Race and Mediocre Beautifully written and deeply personal, this book follows the struggles and triumphs of one single, immigrant mother of color to raise an American feminist son. From teaching consent to counteracting problematic messages from the media, well-meaning family, and the culture at large, the author offers an empowering, imperfect feminism, brimming with honest insight and actionable advice.Informed by Jha's work as a professor of journalism specializing in social justice movements and social media, as well as by conversations with psychologists, experts, other parents and boys--and through powerful stories from her own life--How to Raise a Feminist Son shows us all how to be better feminists and better teachers of the next generation of men in this electrifying tour de force. Includes chapter takeaways, and an annotated bibliography of reading and watching recommendations for adults and children. "A beautiful hybrid of memoir, manifesto, instruction manual, and rumination on the power of story and possibilities of family." —Rebecca Solnit, author of The Mother of All Questions

I purchased this book as a gift for a friend of mine, but I started reading it myself - and even as a nonparent - I could not put it down.A thoughtfully and beautifully written memoir, Jha talks about her own struggles with feeling she is a "bad feminist" and recognizing parenting mistakes (including one where she talks about struggling with her son's bodily autonomy and the idea that he no longer is excited to give his mother kisses as he gets older) and about being able to forgive yourself as a parent for mistakes made or things you wish you had handled differently.I'm in awe of the way Jha is able to make herself raw and vulnerable - even talking about parenting taboos like being scared/disappointed upon finding out your baby's assigned sex or being embarrassed about handling a situation in a not-so-feminist way. All the while breaking down complex societal issues into simple terms and to do lists.One of the things that really struck me was her approach to talking to her child about the violence of men and her own traumas - helping to develop a sense of empathy towards women in him. And then also the unintended consequences of that and how she would have approached it differently if she knew then what she knows now.Finally, I really appreciate that she talks about subjects including the impacts of #MeToo and Black Lives Matter on her feminism and her parenting along with issues particular to what it means to raise a brown boy and being Indian-American in the U.S.Overall, I highly recommend this book not only to parents, but to feminists of all genders who are interested in what it means to shape the men in our world to be more empathetic and understanding of women in the way that women have always been raised to be empathetic and understanding of men. This book gives me hope for the future.
