Interesting

Sikivu Hutchinson was at the University of South Alabama to talk about her new book on sexism. While she restricts her studies to African American and Latin Women I believe that the problems of sexism affect all women, including white women, especially in the South.

Centuries after it was enshrined in the Bible, woman-bashing as law and public morality is still a cornerstone of the West’s unshakeable faith. But as the pro-death, anti-abortion, anti-family values legions of the right drive their scriptural stake through women’s bodies, we believe this new generation of black and Latina feminists will be prepared to face them.
