I'm getting so confused with all these different issues. One thing that i've
noticed is a struggle to fight for so many things at the same time. we need
to tackle one or two things at a time.
So for example, we're talking about oppression... All of the oppressed tie
into one another. For example I'm a Muslim/ Arab a woman, viewed as
oppressed when people see me walking around with my hijab on. People act
arrogantly and act on ignorance because i'm arab, hence racism. I've been
called a lesbian just because in Islam a woman can basically uncover (the
scarf) infront of other women so people are homophobic and need to make
assumptions. I need to be wiretapped according to romney, so im a 2nd class
citizen, which leads to explotaition... So what i'm trying to say is
everything ties into each other.. we just need to dimish this concept of
oppression.
So i guess something like "destruction of oppressive tendencies" and a list
of groups that support the act of ending oppression will kinda say it all
because obiviously those groups recognize the oppression.
Sorry if im being random and not making sense.
