Lifting As We Climb: Black Feminism in the U.S.


Listen Later

This is the second part to our conversation on the origins of feminism in the United States. Last week, we talked about First Wave Feminism and the two women largely considered to have started the movement - Susan B Anthony & Elizabeth Cady Stanton - and how problematic they and their movement was for POC. This week, we talked about women of color and their own efforts despite what was against them. At the end, we'll talk about some philosophy around "white feminism" and how to be a better ally.

Sorry for the weird sound quality on my intro sentences in the first 2 minutes. I recorded those lines seperate from the others, and they came out a little muffled.
