Vehement resistance to using inclusive language and renaming scholarly spaces like Women's Studies and Critical Feminism expresses itself in concerns that women are still oppressed and thus women-only spaces must be maintained. But who is a woman? What are the characteristics of a woman's lived experience? Do affinity and a history of oppression justify exclusion? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book shows how intersectional feminism is often underperformed and appropriated as a \"woke\" vocabulary by elite women who are unwilling to do the necessary emotional work around their privilege. As Trans Women, Femmes, Women of Color, Queer Women, Gender Variant, and Gender Non-Conforming scholars emerge, the heteronormative, cisgender, colonial idea of women and the feminine is rapidly under attack. The contributors believe that to engage in the necessary conversations about the oppressed performing oppression is to disrupt the exclusionary basis of monolithic understandings of the feminine. Only then can we advance the coalition needed to forge a multiracial, multicultural, queer-led, anti-imperialist feminism.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoelle Chaddock is vice president of equity and inclusion at Bates College. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeth Hinderliter is assistant professor of art history and director of the Duke Hall Gallery of Fine Art at James Madison University.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 23, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50357296431341,"sku":"9781498588362","price":84.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/LPPdeUFvsf9781498588362.webp?v=1785348312","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-au\/products\/antagonizing-white-feminism-intersectionalitys-critique-of-womens-studies-and-the-academy-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
