Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge, Consciousness, and the Politics of Empowerment

Patricia Hill Collins
TL;DR: What are systems of oppression? How do we engage with them? How do we understand our place in the Matrix of Domination?

Why I Picked This Up

While reading Design Justice, I found myself thinking a lot about the way things are designed for a narrow “majority” and ignores the lived experiences of everyone else. Sasha Costanza-Chock referenced Pattricia Hill Collins work and sparked my interest in exploring this work from a systems perspective.

My Take

I haven’t opened it yet. I’m excited to better understand Systems of Oppresion.

Key Takeaways

Recommendation

From what I can tell, everyone. I’ll refine this as I read it.
