▶ Maternal Colonialism: Feminism – Mexica Movement

Feminism was created as the means for white women to gain the same stolen and genocidal fruits of male dominated white supremacy.

Community Village‘s insight:

 

If feminism = pro women’s rights. All women (regardless or race or time) who respect themselves and all men who love women are feminists.

The concept of women’s rights existed before the English word ‘feminist’ and before the books on feminism were written.

feminism: the advocacy of women’s rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

Feminism will overlap with racism, but that doesn’t mean that feminism is bad. It means racism that exists within feminism is bad.
