Description
Rafia Zakaria is a Pakistani-American attorney, feminist, journalist and author of an eye opening book I’d recently read - ‘Against White Feminism.’
She believes in an expanded feminist conversation that involves retrieving stories around the world - widening our vocabulary of feminist strength across different cultures.
She says: “We need to excavate and retrieve stories that will lead to an expanded self understanding necessary for a universal feminist consciousness.”
“We need a project of retrieval, because we have an incomplete picture of feminism right now.”
Despite its provocative title, this book is not a scolding but an invitation.
An invitation to examine our own complicity within oppressive, capitalist structures, and to embark on our journey of 'unlearning' in order to rebuild a new and better world.
