Contemporary feminist and antiracist discourses have failed to consider the intersections of racism and patriarchy. To overcome this difficulty, an original approach is suggested here: that of intersectionality. In the first part, the paper discusses structural intersectionality, the ways in which the location of women of color at the intersection of race and gender makes their real experience of domestic violence, rape, and remedial reform qualitatively different from that of white women. The focus is shifted in the second part to political intersectionality, with the analysis of how both feminist and antiracist politics have functioned in tandem to marginalize the issue of violence against women of color. Finally, the implications of the intersectional approach are addressed within the broader scope of contemporary identity politics.

At the dawn of the 20th century, a multi-generational family in the Gullah community on the Sea Islands off of South Carolina – former West African slaves who adopted many of their ancestors’ Yoruba traditions – struggle to maintain their cultural heritage and folklore while contemplating a migration to the mainland, even further from their roots. The first wide release by a black female filmmaker, DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST was met with wild critical acclaim and rapturous audience response when it initially opened in 1991. Casting a long legacy, DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST still resonates today, most recently as a major in influence on Beyonce’s video album Lemonade. Winner of the Cinematography Award and nominated for the Grand Jury Prize in the Dramatic competition at the Sundance Film Festival.

Through work to bring materials and perspectives from Women's Studies into the rest of the curriculum, I have often noticed men's unwillingness to grant that they are overprivileged in the curriculum, even though they may grant that women are disadvantaged. Denials that amount to taboos surround the subject of advantages that men gain from women's disadvantages. These denials protect male privilege from being fully recognized, acknowledged, lessened, or ended.

Qualifié à sa parution en 1987 de « roman du troisième œil » par Gloria F. Orenstein, ce livre raconte un moment dans la vie de Jeanne – depuis sa retraite des Appalaches, au sein d’une petite communauté d’esprits nouveaux –, alors que se meurt sa compagne, Noria. Aviatrice, cette dernière sauve des laboratoires les bêtes torturées à des fins de recherches expérimentales. Sur le seuil de sa vie revient son père, le Lion de Bangor, avec qui elle s’était réconciliée. Ce médecin, qui étudie les cellules souches du cancer, lève enfin pour Jeanne l’écrivaine les derniers voiles sur la vie de Noria : sa naissance, son enfance au sein du Ku Klux Klan, ce fils qu’elle a perdu, et cet amour infini que le Lion lui porte, un amour « comme ces ponts miraculeux sur lesquels nous avançons les uns vers les autres. » « Ce dernier volet de la trilogie Comme une enfant de la terre met en scène Noria, une aviatrice qui, telle une chamane, vole à travers le ciel nocturne de l’Amérique du Nord pour livrer au monde un message de salut et un espoir de guérison, et Jeanne, l’écrivaine qui pratique son propre art magique de la guérison : l’art de la littérature. » — GLORIA F. ORENSTEIN

This paper looks at the ways in which women are divided from themselves and each other as women: at the internalised oppression which results from THE oppression of patriarchy, at the systematic mistreatment of women as a group by men as a group reinforced by the social structures of male power. It also looks at the ways in which women are divided from each other as a result of other oppressive systems such as class and/or race or religion or physical ability or age. The paper then describes how the particular theory and practice of Re-evaluation Counselling can be used to ‘deconstruct’ or ‘discharge’ the internalised oppression of patriarchy and other oppressive systems, making the principles of Women's Liberation and sisterhood a practical possibility for ‘everywoman’ and all women—including Margaret Thatcher. Throughout, the word ‘patriarchy’ is used to mean the system of male power usually regarded as synonymous with sexism.

Résumé L'irruption du discours des minoritaires en sociologie fait éclater le discours des majoritaires en provoquant la remise en question de leurs explications à tendance naturaliste, culturaliste et psychologisante. Affichant le caractère partiel et partial de leurs visions, les femmes et les "ethniques" favorisent l'éclosion de synthèses provisoires, susceptibles de rendre compte des formes multiples de l'oppression
