- Description
- Studies focusing exclusively on the connection between Arab Muslim women's educational pursuits and their gender perceptions, and how their gender perceptions may have changed as a result of living in two different cultures, are rarely conducted. Additionally, the factors that may influence an Arab Muslim woman's educational pursuits seem seldom investigated. This article is highlighting some factors that may influence Arab Muslim women's gender perceptions. In researching Arab Muslim women's experiences, I considered the diversity and multiplicity of their race, ethnicity, class, and experience. How Arab Muslim women construct the gender aspect of their identities and how these identities may have changed or shifted as a result of living in Canada and attending Canadian educational institutions is explored. The cultural and religious reproduction of gender socialization is a major part of the analysis in this article.

- Description
- With the otherness of the Latina's possibly inherited black body, we see mainstream U.S. society’s struggle to define and regulate just how black the mestiza can be before she is no longer a 'white woman of color.' Many Latina's among the second and third generation have embraced this category of the Latina as a chosen referent for a perceived historical experience, collective memory, and cultural expression that make them both American and resistant to full cultural assimilation. Latina singer J.Lo, Jennifer Lopez, re-invents herself constantly as a woman of a thousand ethnic faces, she remains a de-Africanized emblem of the new Latina. However, even as the marketing of Jennifer Lopez depends on her representative status as a Middle-America-friendly new Latina, her 'jungle rump' acts as the displacement for a contradictory set of anxieties and desires about the 'blackness' that always threatens to return and undo this identity formation.

- Description
- 'Author analyses the dramatic discourse of two African American women dramatists, Sonia Sanchez and Ntozake Shange. Author uses as its critical framework Erik Erikson’s theory of identity formation to examine their discourse, which challenges patriarchy and contemporary Anglo American feminist writings. Author also analyses the multiple ways in which Sanchez and Shange invent standard American English to present a unique African American women’s perspective. Their discourse, author argues, thus challenges the prevailing notions of power, truth, knowledge and ideology to give voice to the previously silent black women.'
