This sums up the need for intersectional feminism beautifully: In “Manifesto,” Kareem writes: “I write against the Woman who thinks brazenly that we are one. She, whose behind perches upon the comfortable chair of citizenship, class, and race.”
I also appreciate Kareem's critical look at the popular Gulf Arabic women's writing. It is an important reminder to me that media doesn't exist in a vacuum, even when it's "just" for entertainment and that thoughtless consumption leads to further thoughtless creation. posted by carrioncomfort at 12:29 PM on July 16, 2019
