Abstract
|
:
|
'Black, Muslim, and Gay/Queer Male Allies: An Intersectional Analysis of Men's Gender Justice Activism' explores how intersecting privileged and marginalized identities shape men's efforts to reduce gendered oppression. While there is an increasing consensus among feminist scholars and activists that engaging men is crucial in working towards gender equality, men are often framed as a unitary category. While all men benefit from gender inequality, individual men share in these benefits unequally, depending in part on their location along other intersecting axes of difference (race, class, sexuality, religion, etc.). Eliding these differences is not only analytically inaccurate, but also has consequences for women, because if gender equality organizations are not reaching all men, they are not helping all women.
