Radical Feminism 101 – What is Patriarchy? – A 14 Slide Primer
March 9, 2016 in Education, Feminism | Tags: 14 slides o' Knowledge, Patriarchy, Primer, Radical Feminism | by The Arbourist | 3 comments
All slides are from the presentation by Dr. Cathy Higgins.
Given that power works best from the shadows (insert creepy *mou-ah-ah-ah, here), it is always beneficial to bring the artifice of power into plain sight so can be properly evaluated and critiqued. If one doesn’t know what Patriarchy is, then how can it ever be brought down? Finding the root of the problem and working toward solving that problem – what radical feminism is – provides the means not only to criticize our patriarchal society, but to change it.
Lofty goals aside, for the critical work to get done, a common base of knowledge must be established, hence the reason for our 14 slide foray into the land of patriarchy.
