Contemporary Feminism Sources
Smith, Sharon. “ Black Feminism and Intersectionality.” ISR. W. 1 January 2017.
The article describes how women of color are discriminated against both as females and as blacks. It also explains the civil rights and shows the challenges that black women face in the society. Smith demonstrates the prejudiced practices that women of color experience in the workplaces of some companies. With contemporary feminism, women face different persecutions of race, gender, and class. Race and discrimination create inequality in the society. Therefore, we have to acknowledge how the intersectional approach is greater than racism or sexism, as “Intersectionality leads the way toward a much higher level of understanding of the character of oppression than that developed by classical Marxists” (Smith) and failure to recognize racism ends up creating favoritism status.

These problems seem to be the most concerns of women activists in the modern-day society. The real purpose and accomplishments of women in many societies, such as those of the Middle East show how women demonstrators tend to solve issues associated with the violence against their civil rights. The big complex issue in contemporary years regarding women’s rights is the lack of feminist association that could work toward ending up any violence against women. It is so sad how humanity became more racist and violent while people are expected to live with social harmony.
