Document Summary

Violence against women: experience is shaped by race and class, racism and sexism intersect. Intersectionality: contemporary feminist and antiracist discourses have failed to consider intersectional identities such as women of color . Structural intersectionality: shelters: cultural and language barriers, rape crisis services: standards of need are based on white and middle-class standards. Political intersectionality: antiracist strategies: defined by men, antisexist strategies: defined by white women. Poll: how familiar ware you with the name michael brown: very familiar, somewhat familiar, it rings a bell, but not too familiar, not familiar at all. Poll: how familiar are you with the name tanisha anderson: very familiar, somewhat familiar, it rings a bell, but not too familiar, not familiar at all. The urgency of intersectionality: why are we less likely to know the names of the black women killed by police, it doesn"t get the same attention from the media, wasn"t viewed as important.
