I liked it, but I'm not sure I completely buy the theological perspective.

I wanted to like this book more than I did. But not being a Catholic or radical feminist (much less both put together, which is an uncomfortable fit at best) I could never agree with Isasi-Díaz's locus theologicus or hermeneutic. Nevertheless, I do think some of her more general philosophical observations, whether about the concepts of solidarity and justice or about hermeneutical blind spots in traditional theologies, are important, downright brilliant in regard to solidarity especially.

Mujarista theology is fascinating, but moreover, Isasi-Diaz's idea that marching in protests and doing advocacy can be spiritual practices is brilliant. The book is much longer than necessary for the content, but her ideas are still very good.
