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.
