Intro to Gender Studies
Womanism is a social theory that emerges from the experiences of women of color, particularly African American women, and emphasizes the importance of race, class, and gender in understanding their unique struggles and identities. It advocates for a holistic approach to feminism, recognizing that issues such as racism, sexism, and classism are interconnected and must be addressed together. This concept challenges mainstream feminism to broaden its scope to include the voices and perspectives of marginalized groups.
