Description |
lam a "woman of colour." As my skin is fairly dark, most people I encounter in daily life consider this obvious. Yet, at a conference I organized in 1993, a white legal feminist looked at me directly and complained that no voices of women of colour were represented on the panel, nor had any women of colour had a role in shaping the edited book around which it was organized, which was in fact my project. That was not the first time my ethnicity/colour had been "e-raced" to suit someone else's political purposes, but it was one of the most offensive instances.
