Leah Thomas’s The Intersectional Environmentalist: How to Dismantle Systems of Oppression to Protect People + Planet is a nonfiction guide to environmental justice and social equity. It introduces readers to intersectional environmentalism, a framework that argues environmental protection cannot be separated from race, class, privilege, disability, and other systems of oppression. Rather than treating climate change as only a technical or scientific problem, the book presents it as a social issue shaped by unequal access to power and resources. Thomas writes for a broad audience, especially newer activists, and aims to make environmentalism more accessible, practical, and inclusive. The book combines historical context, conceptual explanation, and action-oriented guidance, helping readers understand why mainstream environmental movements have often overlooked marginalized communities and how that pattern can be changed. Its purpose is both educational and corrective: to broaden the meaning of environmentalism so that protecting the planet also means protecting the people most affected by environmental harm.
