"My book focuses on racism, a subject that concerns both women and men. It is aimed at a broader audience than just women. The injustices suffered by women may be partly the subject of my next work.But I think that rather than complaining, women would do better to learn how to defend themselves effectively, and for that, they need to study and better understand men, their weaknesses, their aspirations—in short, what goes on in men's heads."
