For A Decolonial Feminism: Rethinking
Whiteness, Eurocentrism and Gender
Lecture online Professor Françoise Vergès “For A Decolonial
Feminism: Rethinking Whiteness, Eurocentrism and Gender”_
A black woman’s experience of misogyny is different from the
one experienced by a white woman. Similarly, her experience
of racism is not the same as the one experienced by a black
man. African-American female thinkers (Patricia Hill Collins,
Kimberlé Crenshaw, bell hooks to name a few) were the first to
insist on the necessity to consider the complex relations that
existed between different types of social categorizations and
the specific expressions of discrimination that derived from
them.
