Dissecting Feminism ft. Rafia Zakaria

from Be Well Sis: The Podcast

 “It is not enough for alternative narratives of Black, Brown, and Native women simply to exist; they must actually influence the content and the course of the movement for gender parity. And before this call can happen, white women must reckon with just how much white privilege has influenced feminist movements and continues to influence the agenda of feminism today". - Rafia Zakaria  Although we've moved to a bi-weekly schedule, I had to pop-in and share this BONUS episode with you featuring the author of the newly released book called Against White Feminism: Notes on Disruption.   In this episode, we have a great conversation on the many ways that feminism upholds white supremacy and why many Black and Brown women identify as Womanists instead. She shares her own stories and shares insight on how women of color can navigate toxic systems of oppression and maintain their sense of self and sanity.  Purchase the book here!   Be Well, Sis Partners:  Shop Athletic Greens for a free 1-year- supply of Vitamin D! *Start your Audible trial now!  Join the tribe on IG!  Support us on Patreon!
