A Different Future

If we lived in a less oppressive world I would live my life very differently. I would be able to go on a train without constantly being on edge of being alone in the cart. I would be able to look in my closet and just put on whatever makes me feel comfortable. I would maybe not as act as polite to strangers. I would see more women of color in power. I would love to see the CEO of a company like Amazon be a women of color. I would want younger girls to feel represented and that they aren’t limited to what the world hands out. I would watch a film and like to see the protagonist female not get sexualized. I would see men and women get a longer time for maternity leave. I would overall want to see more unity.

A Different Future

If a feminist and anti-racist activism succeeded and we live in a more egalitarian and less oppressive world, I would wake up to the birds singing. I would wake up even more gleeful to start in a world that I know if for me and not against me. I would be more optimistic and feel safer and so would many other people. My mornings would be normal, but I would wake up praying for it to never end. In this ideal world, I would not take anything for granted, knowing how much sacrifices and struggles it took to get to this state. I would imagine it being a world similar to how it was before Eve ate the apple-blind to our flaws and content with each other. Peaceful. My brother could go about his day without fearing for his life because of his race. My mom would no longer seek to shelter her only daughter. I would be more willing to experience new things.

My average day would consist of going to class with more hope and being able to focus and work harder without having to worry or stress over these social issues. CUNY would offer more intense and confrontational classes on these issues. However, these issues might be eliminated systematically, but it is hard to remove it mentally. I would still come home being annoyed about the ignorant minds, but I will feel better knowing that it cannot extend beyond their thoughts.

What is Feminism ?

We all know the typical meaning of the word “feminism “ which is basically a political ideology that females should have equality like men . Now althoughI wouldn’t call my self a die hard feminist . I’m not nonchalant about it either . I see the importance it has especially in the generation we live in. Feminism to me is someone who is born or identifies themselves as a woman who advocates social , political , and Economic equality . I personally feel like people in this world don’t realize that woman are truly always underestimated and you would think after all the #GirlPower movements we’ve had that it would strike a nerve but ignorance has always been bliss I always said as long as there is hate there is love vice versa . We live in a world where all you need is one believer and the ideology of whatever claim is being thrown out there is. I truly do hope one of these days we as little girls , young woman , and woman rise to the top and stay on top that also goes out for my colored girls I didn’t forget about you . Well that’s all for tonight . Hope you enjoyed #QueensTalk

I am interested in exploring issues of equality in woman that are not from the US . I don’t have a specific Person or country that I know because this is all very neW to me and I want to research about a topic I’m not fusilier with because I want to learn something new about woman studies and feminist. I hope to mostly focus on contemporary issues in other countries but if I find a intriguing piece about older struggles these woman face .
