Baker Cleage And Perkins Analysis

In comparison to Barker’s statement, Perkins argues that racist ideology has always historically plagued Black females. Images of being hypersexual being have been projected on them, because they “choose to silence or minimize the sexual aspect of their identity so as not to fuel existing stereotypes” (Still Lifting Climbing 94). Here, I interject three noted examples, Barker uses that are most common “for erotic-sexual activity—‘fuck’, ‘screw’, or ‘bang’” (67). He argues that this is the very language that governs “descriptive vocabulary entails male dominance” (67).
In conclusion, Baker, Cleage, and Perkins present strong arguments in reacting to gender biases, which is a pervasive feature of the theoretical discourse of their work.
