What many of us don’t realize/understand is that there are different classes of oppressions. People throughout history and even today are in varieties rails of oppression, for instance race, unequal right between women and man, gay black men, black lesbian women with unequal right. In the March for Women’s suffrage parade black women were only allowed to march in the back. Black women experience some of the worst oppression because they were treated like a second class citizen and their lives were seen as less than a human because of their skin. They Marched at a parade for their equal rights but in the back because they are black. In “Combahee River collective” The author is basically explaining this in her novel, on a political level, Religious belief, herstory, etc. Most stories told in history are never about herstory. In my history class they speak so little information about women, especially those of color. I enjoy watching the film “Paris is burning ”. It illustrates a whole different side of New York residents. The Drag Queens and these interesting balls they attend. This reminded me a lot of the show “Pose” Transgender women feeling less than human. It was extremely hard for them to get any respect as a person. They were not allowed in bars and certain stores. They mostly worked the corners and as show girls trying to make a living and afford dresses for the balls they attended. Black women and Transgender wpmen suffraged the most discrimination for being who they are or choose to be.
