The minority feminist viewpoints have often been submerged in
the interests of maintaining a mainstream, universal model of
feminism. This anthology takes into account the various differences
among women while looking at the important areas of feminist
struggle. While sisterhood is indeed global, it certainly does not
mean that all women are required to submerge their specific
differences and assimilate to a universal model. Consequently, the
collection includes essays by leaders in the field of
post-structuralist enquiry as well as by those immersed in the new
spirituality, and the social consequences of recent biological
research. Other essays reflect the political struggles which
continue to be waged with different strategies by socialist and
radical feminists, and the self-searching analyses undertaken by
feminists uneasy about their inclusion within educational
institutions and the radical new interpretations of sexuality
within the cultural domain. The collection begins with a critique
of white mainstream feminism emanating from Aboriginal women in
Australia. The implications of the critique indicate that there is
a pervasive racism within the feminist movement.
