Tues Draft Questions - Abby Hecko


  1. In the Teen Vogue article it states how the , “Ecuadorian feminist movement at large differs from its counterparts in America and because of its intent on avoiding single-issue white feminism.” The US has struggled with much of the movements being based purely off of white feminism. How has Ecuador included all people in the definition of feminism and what are some strategies to make these feminist events inclusive of all feminists? 
  2. In the article, Dissidence and Community Feminism, it states, “Feminism is disobedience.” As a feminist I find this phrase to be empowering. However from  an outside perspective, from someone who isn’t a feminist and does not support  much of the movements, how would they view this phrase? In order to face the patriarchy and end it, we need to get everyone on board. Do phrases like this create a greater divide between misoginists and the feminists?
  3. In the article, Dissidence and Community Feminism, it states, “there is no practice without theory, but there are theories without practice.” This quote emphasises the strength of theories in making a change. What are the pros of having these theories and not practicing them?
