- Description
- This article explores the gender ideology of the Black Power movement, the participation of women, the effect of the fight against racism together with an increased level of race consciousness on gender awareness, and the cultural changes inspired by Black Power. It then analyses the emergence of a new and more radical phase of the women's movement in Trinidad in the mid to late 1970s, which led to the beginnings of a feminist discourse. It follows that development by assessing the increased consumerism spawned by the oil boom and how it conflicted with Black Power ideology and affected the gender system. The final section will examine how women and men are portrayed in newspaper advertisements, women's pages, letters, articles and other newspaper items.

- Description
- Paper about the geo-politics of race, political and therefore personal constructions of race as central to both domestic and international politics and the emergence of a world capitalist system with its attendant gender, race, class structures and inevitable wars. Colonialism was built on the pseudo-scientific racism of the nineteenth century that constructed dark skinned peoples as inferior. Author concludes that the politics of race most clearly inhibited solidarity between women.

- This paper argues that the rights of women to be included in decisions about energy use and their experiences with energy use are ignored. Using an eco-feminist perspective this article explores how the rhetoric of ‘renewable energy for the poor’ which bypasses women’s voices and experience in domestic uses of renewable energy result in reverse outcomes of pro-environmental policy for the poor, as well as, for society in general.
