a. "The oppression of women knows no ethnic or racial boundaries." Do you agree or not? Justify with your reasons.
“The oppression of women recognizes no ethnic or racial limits, but that does not imply it is similar within those divisions,” wrote Black poet and feminist writer Audre Lorde. Sexual orientation and socioeconomic standing all affect how women and girls see the world. With the recent outbreak of the Corona virus in the US, gender and racial inequities have been starkly emphasized. Women of color work as grocery store clerks, postal carriers, food delivery drivers, bus drivers, farmhands, and warehouse laborers. Women’s experiences differ because they face comparable issues.
b. Why is it important to question our beliefs and values? How are they set up in a person’s mind?
Many of the beliefs aren’t our own but are adopted from our groups or the result of other environmental influences. We take them on without thinking and often out of the fear of denial. Our beliefs define what is possible for us. They act as a lens through which we see, and relate to the world. They determine what is right or wrong, based on what we experienced in the past. Questioning our beliefs is very important for the expansion of our field of possibilities. Until we question our beliefs they will determine our life mostly from the shadows. But the time when we shine light on them through questioning, we open a door to a change or new world.
