I've always been skeptical of white feminist voices being too loud.

Interesting how the people who got triggered by this offer nothing to challenge the arguments. Being “anti-idpol” for the sake of it is very revealing

Mostly men watch this channel. Thanks to Emma that’s changing. Apparently men don’t support feminism as much as other topics. Not many watched and/or liked 👍 this video. For men that did watch and/or like this video, we women thank you. We can’t grow feminism as quickly without your support.

Capitalist feminism and white feminism go together imo

I think it's very hard for people outside of one of the abrahamic religions to understand how any of those religions can be reasonably reconciled with feminism. Like if someone says the important aspects of their religion are community, god, and spirituality, like okay fine, but if they say they follow the bible/hebrew bible/quran and the teachings of a traditional church then I don't really understand how that can be reconciled with feminism. Catholicism does not allow for women to be in positions of power in the church, essentially enforcing a patriarchy, and traditional Islam and Judaism restrict what women can wear in order to not tempt men. Other christian churches like evangelicalism in the US are also very regressive in terms of women's rights and feminism. I understand there are reformists, but I don't see how any traditional or literal reading of scripture can possibly be interpreted as feminist, so I think that confuses people who are nonreligious or who subscribe to a religion that, taken literally or traditionally, allows for equality between men and women. Obviously christian feminists excluding islamic feminists is completely hypocritical and problematic, I certainly don't think there is a "best" abrahamic religion for feminism, only a best version or interpretation of each religion. When looking solely at race/country of origin, I absolutely agree that exclusion at the hands of white feminists is a huge problem, and I think the general approach to talking about religious feminists has been a large problem as well.

Greqt interview with Zakaria, hope more people take what she says about feminism into account

This comment section has a surprising number of bots.

I believe the word you’re looking for is “western feminism”

Queue to all you "anti-idpol" types. Sorry if you're offended! But you're doing the right-wing's dirty work. Good job!

Thank you for covering one of my favorite fields of study at University, 'black radical feminism'.

okay.......so, i get what she is saying. but lets not pretend that arranged marriages is NOT abuse. and lets not pretend that religious indoctrination is also NOT abuse. just because YOU feel comfortable following the "laws" of your religion, it doesnt mean that said laws are ethical or moral

DID you know that your arranged marriage was wrong when you were that young from that culture? Somehow I doubt it. It IS WRONG. That you couldn't say it clearly proves they were right to assume this about you.

Wait, so she was in an abusive relationship though?

I understand the point about having a diverse coalition within feminists movements to make it politically more relevant. But Zakaria states, towards the end, that the lack of a coalition leads to instances like Texas. But doesn't Texas prove that, despite having a diverse coalition, feminists must nonetheless adopt some issues as not open to diverse and divergent interpretations? Shouldn't feminists thus have a stringent code (albeit wrt to a few things) in order to avoid attacks such as the one on abortion rights (or other rights in the future)? The way corporations market feminism should be done away with with immediate effect. But what I think should emerge out of a diverse coalition is not an open-ended understanding of feminism which will weaken any particular groups ability to act for change, but to have at least a set of immutable demands which takes more groups into confidence.

If you are not Relatable how do you expect others to do just that.

Oof, what a shame to see this twitter troll hosted on an otherwise excellent show.

Frankly, if the woman had done nothing she would have been subject to criticism for being a loud white feminist who doesn't back her words with action. As she conveyed the story, I'd be curious to know what she thinks the woman should have done differently

Maybe it’s the lighting but she doesn’t seem brown to me.

Is this the onion?

The “Jacobin Online Left” must be losing their minds right now

I guess we’re just making things up now? 🤣
