We Didn't Know What Would Happen: Opening the Discourse on Incest and Sexual Abuse

The work of putting Worlds of Hurt online is going well. The seventh chapter, "We Didn't Know What Would Happen: Opening the Discourse on Incest and Sexual Abuse," is now available. I hope it will be helpful to those who are searching for substantive material about the cultural and political history of the feminist struggle to reveal and challenge the institutions that support and conceal violence against women and children. I think this chapter is also particularly important because it directly addresses the racism of mainstream, white feminism and argues that any true progress will need to be based on the recognition that race and gender are inseparable issues for women not just women of color, but for all women.

Hi Kali - can't remember if I've said this before in a previous comment, but I just wanted to say thanks for your work on this site, and particualrly for putting Worlds of Hurt online. I have the 1996 Cambridge edition, but it's great to see the updates and additions.
Wishing you well,
broke
