Conflict or Solidarity. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2009, Pages: 144
According to a proverb of unknown origin:
'Two are better than one because together they can
work more effectively. If one of them falls down,
the other can lift her up.'
This adage defines the essence of a multicultural
feminism that encourages collective voice to benefit
women of Color by facilitating an improved quality
of life for them. Evidence is lacking, however,
about whether women of Color practice multicultural
feminism to affect change.
This research study explores the relationships among
women of Color. Central to the findings is the
recognition of the complex interaction of feelings
of women of Color about their similarities and
differences, reasons for the existence of
internalized racism and cross-racial hostility, and
the effects of competition among them that
denigrates solidarity and spurs conflict.
