Her page is tagged and on her page is a fairly recent mcm post of the man that killed her: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl5j4aLn67q/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=n4vq7miagn8l Intimate partner violence is the #1 cause of preventable deaths of women 18-35. 15-45 for black women. I’m a DV victim as well. I’ve just never seen that 75% number before This is why we need Womanism This is a great post except that last word at the end that sounds super terfy and bad, let’s just nix that and replace it with feminism. I think like 4 people told me Google womanism so I did and feminism is still a better word because womanism does not address gay issues and actually has a lot of splintering within itself and people who identify as womanists will have varying and often entirely different interpretations. While the founding of womanism appears to be feminism for poc, it is not a unifying term and fails to address homophobia and terfs within its own community so I really disagree with people telling me to Google shit cause it ain’t helping. And this term? Like I get it. Feminism, co-opted by white people, has led to little real change within poc community, but this term womanism is just another word for feminism lacking protections of trans and gays so people of color can feel separate from white feminism. Still sounds terfy to me! So go on an get mad, tellin me to Google shit and getting all mad when ain’t any reason to be. For those of you who wonder why some black women want nothing to do with feminism it’s because of non black women like the above. A black woman was literally killed due to domestic violence and this is her response, as if feminism hasn’t historically excluded both LGBTQ+ and black women for years. Choose womanism and continue to support ALL black women. Thank you! I was literally reading her response like… Womanism was LITERALLY COINED BY A BLACK WOMAN WHO DATED AND HAD RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER WOMEN!!!! Alive Walker was NOT straight and the history of womanism (and black feminism) has never been that of only centering heterosexuality. Black lesbians, bi women and wlw were the bedrock of black feminism and womanism. Their cursoary google search was clearly shit and they just went read theee sentences on Wikipedia. Fucking disgusting. I wish white women would just learn to shut the actual fuck up when we’re talking. They can’t function when shit ain’t about them. -- source link
