“We have found that it is very difficult to organize around Black feminist issues, difficult even to announce in certain contexts that we are Black feminists.”-Combahee River Collective Statement, 1977
What desire, anxiety, hope and love do you feel towards fellow members of your oppressed group?
What’s a time when you could not speak your political stance out loud? What caused that? What would it take to make your vision more speakable?
ARE YOU A BLACK FEMINIST? Why? Why not?
