"If you stand tall it's because you stand on the shoulders of those that came before you." -Yoruba Proverb I not sure anymore about all this who is and is not what, but I do know that if we are all not free no one is free! period!!!
Call yourself first,second,third wave Feminist, I have problems with the location of Feminism mainly centered in North American middle class academic whiteness and recreating the racial hierarchy from that lens and epistemology. The Black/White paradigm also excludes the location of the "radicalized other" in the discourse and agency of other WOC and Mixed Raced women. And then there is the whole we in the west know best! Thank you for you thoughtful words and time you took to research you quote
