- Description
- Dit boek gaat over kennis van racisme, waar die kennis vandaan komt, wat die inhoudt en hoe die gebruikt kan worden in de politiek, het onderwijs, media, musea, gezondheidszorg, technologie, werkorganisaties of buurtgemeenschappen. Het omvat inzicht in de manier waarop racisme zich institutioneel verankert, hoe de verbinding eruit ziet tussen systeem en alledaagse praktijken en tussen micro- en macrodimensies van racisme. Het boek geeft een verdieping in de theorie van alledaags racisme als machtsconflict en proces. Het is gebaseerd op interviews met hoger opgeleide, zwarte vrouwen in Nederland en in Californië, Verenigde Staten.
- Vertaling van de originele Engelse versie 'Understanding everyday racism: an interdisciplinary theory', 1991.

The author, drawing on her own experience as an exotic dancer, examines the ways that striptease embodies conflicting notions of race, class, and female sexuality, and how the exotic dance industry deploys these differences to codify and commodify our erotic imagination. With case studies.

- Description
- This book reconnects the roots of black feminism to contemporary activism in the United States, describing the contributions of the black feminist organization, the Combahee River Collective (CRC). Forty years ago, in 1977, the CRC founders published a statement the so-called Combahee River Collective Statement. One remarkable aspect of this radical collective was its intersectional analysis of the roots of black women's oppression and inequality. In this collection of interviews, founding members of the CRC and contemporary activists - e.g. from #BlackLivesMatter - reflect on the legacy of its contributions to black feminism and its influence on today's struggles.

- Description
- This book traces the development of a Left feminist consciousness as women became more actively involved in the American Left during and immediately following World War II. McDonald argues that women writers on the Left drew on the rhetoric of antifascism to critique the cultural and ideological aspects of women's oppression. The book provides a historical overview of women writers who anticipated issues about women's oppression and the intersections of gender, race, and class that would become central tenants of feminist literary criticism and black feminist criticism in the 1970s and 1980s. It closely considers works by writers both well-known and obscure, including Lorraine Hansberry, Alice Childress, Martha Dodd, Sanora Babb, and Beth McHenry.

- Description
- This volume, synthesizing over 20 years of feminist thinking, presents critiques of mainstream psychological theories and lays the groundwork for the development of a context-based, feminist psychological theory. . .Part I of the volume examines the limitations that underlie traditional views of human nature as well as the consequences of not taking into account the effects of contextual and structural forces upon human development. .The initial chapters utilize feminist analyses of gender, context, and structure to assess the adequacy of the metaphysic in traditional personality theories' assumptions. .Following chapters examine the impact and limits of empiricism as the dominant model of knowledge generation within cognitive-behavioural theories: identify Jung's biases, which are integral to his use of rationalism as an epistemic method: and demonstrate the class and culture biases implicit in personality theories. In essence, the limits and dangers of single-use epistemological approaches are illuminated, and fundamental considerations – 'What is reality and by whom is it defined?' - are posed. . .Part II focuses on traditional views of psychopathology, and provides feminist critiques of its models and conceptualizations. These chapters address current mainstream models of several large categories of psychopathology - depression, schizophrenia, agoraphobia, personality disorders, and trauma - and present feminist revisions for differently understanding these sets of observed behaviours.

They vividly describe the point at which they experienced the shift in their lives and in the lives of those around them that led toward a new day for women in the history profession. In the midst of a national movement to end sex discrimination through legislation, to increase women's consciousness-raising efforts, and to acknowledge the economic realities of women in the workforce, these women came together to form an organization that could enable them to have the careers they deserved.

- This book examines the history of women's bookstores in the US from the 1970s to the 1990s. 'Women's bookstores' refers to bookstores operated by and for women. Such bookstores emerged out of the second women's movement as well as the lesbian and gay rights movement. This book establishes that women's bookstores played an important role in feminism by enabling the dissemination of women's voices and thereby helping to sustain and enrich the women's movement. The crucial step toward the development of women's bookstores started with the first national Women In Print Conference in 1976. As an important part of the feminist publishing community, it gathered strength centered around the periodical Feminist Bookstore News.

- Description
- Patti Smith (1946-) and Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989) found each other on the streets of New York City in the late '60s and made a pact to keep each other afloat until they found their voices--or the world was ready to hear them. Lovers first and then friends as Mapplethorpe discovered he was gay. Mapplethorpe was quicker to find his metier, with a Polaroid and then a Hasselblad, but Smith was the first to fame, transformed from a poet into a rock star. Mapplethorpe soon became famous too before his death from AIDS in 1989. Smith's memoir of their friendship, Just Kids, is open-eyed with the oracular style familiar from her anthems like 'Because the Night,' 'Gloria,' and 'Dancing Barefoot' balanced by her powers of observation and memory for everyday details .

- Description
- Using fathers' first-hand accounts from letters, journals, and personal interviews along with hospital records and medical literature, Leavitt offers a new perspective on the changing role of expectant fathers from the 1940s to the 1980s. She shows how, as men moved first from the hospital waiting room to the labor room in the 1960s, and then on to the delivery and birthing rooms in the 1970s and 1980s, they became more involved in the birth experience and their influence over events expanded. With attention to power and privilege, Leavitt charts not only the increasing involvement of fathers, but also medical inequalities, the impact of race and class, and the evolution of hospital policies. The book is illustrated with images from TV, films, and magazines.

- Description
- Reading Jack Kerouac's 'On the road' through Virginia Woolf's 'A room of one's own', the author examines women's road narratives. The study shows how women's literature has inscribed itself into the American discourse of the 'freedom of the road'. Women writers have participated in this myth, yet at the same time also have rejected it as fundamentally based on gendered and racial/ethnic hierarchies and power structures. The book analyzes stories about female runaways, outlaws, adventurers, kidnaps, biker chicks and travelling saleswomen and makes theoretical observations on the debates regarding discourses of spatiality and mobility.

- Description
- In the late 1980s, after a decade spent engaged in more routine interest-group politics, thousands of lesbians and gay men responded to the AIDS crisis by taking to the streets. But by the early 1990s, the organization they founded, ACT UP, was no more—even as the AIDS epidemic raged on. Weaving together interviews with activists, extensive research, and reflections on the author’s time as a member of the organization, this book tells the story of the rise and fall of ACT UP, highlighting a key factor in its trajectory: emotion. Overlooked by many scholars of social movements, emotion, Gould argues, plays a fundamental role in political activism. From anger to hope, pride to shame, and solidarity to despair, feelings played a significant part in ACT UP’s style of protest, which included demonstrations, die-ins, and other kinds of street theater.

- Description
- The author posits the late twentieth-century increase in incest literature against political and economic changes of the era. Issues of race, class and gender are emphasized in textual analysis, which is combined with theory –feminist and multidisciplinary– and discussion of the culture of the era. The author is particularly concerned with the effects of neoliberal ideology on patriarchal distributions of power within nationally constructed fantasies of the Freudian concept of the family romance. She discusses different concepts of trauma, the history and cultural variations of the incest taboo and the so called 'memory wars' in the debate on incest.

- Description
- In 1963, as Betty Friedan's Feminine Mystique appeared and civil rights activists marched on Washington, a separate social movement emerged among American Catholics. Thousands of Catholic feminists—both lay women and women religious—marched, theologized, and prayed together, building sisterhood and confronting sexism in the Roman Catholic Church. In this history of American Catholic feminism, Henold explores the movement from the 1960s through the early 1980s, showing that although Catholic feminists had much in common with their sisters in the larger American feminist movement, Catholic feminism was distinct and had not been simply imported from outside. Catholic feminism grew from within the church, rooted in women's own experiences of Catholicism and religious practice. She identifies the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), an inspiring but overtly sexist event that enraged and exhilarated Catholic women in equal measure, as a catalyst of the movement within the church. Catholic feminists regularly explained their feminism in terms of their commitment to a gospel mandate for social justice, liberation, and radical equality. They considered feminism to be a Christian principle.

- Description
- In 1978, feminist author Kate Millett founded an art colony for women in Poughkeepsie, United States, that remained in operation until the beginning of the new millennium. The colony was founded out of a belief that a gender-specific community would provide an environment where women artists could work unencumbered by social stigma. Millett Farm, familiarly referred to as 'The Farm', evolved from incorporating elements of the radical feminist, gay liberation, and avant-garde movements, creating an experimental community devoted to both the production and the discussion of art made by women. .In 2010 Millett invited S.O.J. - Sisters of Jam (Moa and Mikaela Krestesen) to stay with her at The Farm. This was the starting point for this cultural portrait of The Farm as an artist colony, a feminist community, a social experiment and an act of opposition. Contains interviews with past residents and photographs of The Farm. Also with journal entries, texts from the dissertation 'A world we have invented here' and a map of The Farm by Anne B. Keating. This book has been made possible by Swedish art funds and musea.
