Reflection 11

“Identity politics,” in my opinion, emanate from individual experiences, depending on the group, race, social class, culture, or nationality with which you identify. However, it is essential to be intentional about the change one wishes to see implemented, in the sense that “identity politics” should look beyond oneself or a specific group and allow for an expansion that benefits all, striking a balance between the privileged and the marginalized, and forming a political alliance that is not exclusive.

Additionally, we must start with self, and home, educate boys and girls of the same values, raise the standards of a girl child, and be deliberate in our intentions if we want to create a healthy society, make feminism work, and support the movement of women.

As I think about this week’s article, I consider the ways that I can be more objective and inclusive such as the ways that I approach situations in my environment and the way that I approach some of my thoughts.
