WGS101H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Equal Pay For Equal Work, Making Money, Audre Lorde
Document Summary
There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle, because we do not live single-issue lives . Intersectionality helpings us through a different lens. Exposed the lives of women of colour, women who are not white. Categories become problematic south asian feminist, black feminist, etc. Women of colour issues were not tied to feminist. Black people are not human, they have no value, no rights. Bromley says we need to value people and the differences among us. Think through what differences is, but it can"t be based on a structure. Who am i and how do i use who i am in service of other people. Empowered women put themselves behind what they believe. Power that you are not using is being used against us, world, children (terrible things are. No black lesbian history without white lesbian history being done in our name) Make connections, that we live in an international community.
