An authoritative call to end anti-fat bias and champion the acceptance
of all bodies.
In this remarkable book, Minna Bromberg lays bare the harm of anti-fat
bias and the restorative potential for body liberation in Jewish
tradition to confront fatphobia. Bromberg traces her own journey of
identity formation, bodily autonomy, and self-acceptance from her
earliest memories of dieting at the age of seven to her young adult
activism to the founding of her organization, Fat Torah. Letters
reflecting on her personal experiences are interwoven with critical
discussions about the need to address harmful stigma about fat bodies,
to end fat shaming, and to engage meaningfully with questions of fat
accessibility. Bromberg persuasively demonstrates what we can learn
from Jewish tradition that will allow us to usher in a culture of
healing and acceptance of all bodies created in the Divine image.
