Editing Global Feminisms and Decolonization (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Understanding</span> ==
Global feminism is understood through '''Positionality''' and '''Sovereignty'''.

'''1. The "Single Perspective" Trap (Under Western Eyes)''':
Why is "Western Advice" sometimes "Harmful"?
* **Mohanty** "Argued" that Western feminists "Assume" their "Goal" (e.g. 'Sexual Liberation' or 'Careerism') is the **"Universal Goal"** for "All Women."
* (See Article 643). This "Ignores" that for many women, the **"Primary Enemy"** is **"War," "Debt,"** or **"Colonialism."**
* By "Labeling" non-western women as "Victims," Western feminism "Takes Away" their **"Agency."**
* "Justice" must be **"Defined"** by those "Living the Struggle."

'''2. The "De-Gendering" of Colonialism (Indigenous Views)''':
"Colonialism" "Invented" the "Hierarchy."
* Many **Indigenous** feminists argue that "Before Colonialism," their "Societies" were **"Egalitarian"** or **"Complementary."**
* **Colonialism** "Imposed" the "Western Binary" (see Article 643) and the "Patriarchal Nuclear Family" to "Control" the "Land."
* Therefore, "Gender Equality" **"Requires"** **"Decolonization."**
* "The Body" and "The Land" are **"Linked."**

'''3. The "Strategic" Solidarity (Transnationalism)''':
"Global" problems, "Local" solutions.
* **Global Feminism** "Builds" "Networks" to "Fight" "Global Systems" (like 'Human Trafficking' or 'Climate Change').
* But it "Does Not" "Demand" a "Single Identity."
* It "Practices" **"Solidarity without Sameness."**
* It "Recognizes" that a "Woman in Kenya" and a "Woman in Sweden" might have "Different Priorities" but can "Support" each other's **"Right to Choose."**

'''The 'Zapatista' Women’s Revolutionary Law (Mexico, 1993)'''': A "Groundbreaking" document. "Indigenous Women" in the Zapatista movement "Drafted" their "Own Law" "Demanding" the right to "Decide" "How many children to have," "Whom to marry," and "To hold political office." It proved that "Feminism" can "Emerge" from "Local Revolution" "Without" "Western Influence."
