“If white American feminist theory need not deal with the differences between us, and the resulting difference in our oppressions, then how do you deal with the fact that the women who clean your houses and tend your children while you attend conferences on feminist theory are, for the most part, poor women and women of Color? What is the theory behind racist feminism?” IfsNeedsChildrenFactsHouseDifferencesWhitePoorDealsBehindsFeminismColorTheoryMen And WomenOur ChildrenCleanFeministOppressionYour ChildrenRacistConferencesFeminist Theory Book:Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches Source: Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches
“There is no military solution to the war in Iraq. Our troops can help suppress the violence, but they cannot solve its root causes. And all the troops in the world won't be able to force Shia, Sunni, and Kurd to sit down at a table, resolve their differences, and forge a lasting peace. In fact, adding more troops will only push this political settlement further and further into the future, as it tells the Iraqis that no matter how much of a mess they make, the American military will always be there to clean it up.” WorldWarMatterFactsHelpingAblePoliticalForceCausesDifferencesViolenceMilitarySolutionsRootsTablesCleanIraqSolveMessLastingResolveTroopsSettlementOur TroopsRoot CauseKurdsAmerican MilitaryShia Author:Barack Obama
