Description
In the public debate, being decolonial is an infamy. In universities, in left and far-left parties, unions, feminist associations, everywhere we hunt down an infiltrated and disastrous "decolonial thought" for living together.
In this book, Françoise Vergès elucidates the object of the scandal. Decolonial feminism reveals the unthought of white good conscience; it is situated from the point of view of racialized women: those who, as domestic workers, clean the world; it denounces a fundamentally racial and patriarchal capitalism.
These incisive pages offer another account of feminism and ask all the awkward questions: what alliances with white women? What solidarity with racialized men? What are the primary lives threatened by racial capitalism? Why do neo-fascisms attack racialized women?
This book is an invitation to reconnect with the utopian power of feminism, that is to say with an imagination capable of bringing about a radical transformation of society.
