The aim of this course is to break the national mold which paradoxically shapes transnational feminist discourse. In so doing, this course takes the Combahee River Collective’s famous statement as its methodological starting point. By placing intersectionality in dialogue with feminist writers from around the world, we will investigate the politics that have continued to produce and circulate representational and material inequalities over the last fifty years. We will thus question the methods by which feminist knowledge has historically been made and ask ourselves who is left out? Key issues covered will be language and borders; the global and gendered distribution of labor, in particular, the issue of domestic labor; feminism and its relation to national-states; as well as imperialist intervention narratives which make hideous use of women’s suffering.
