For my personal is political writing class, I wrote an analytical essay based on an epigraph of two quotes from from "But I Know You, American Woman" by Judit Moschkovich and "Asian Pacific American Women and Feminism" by Mitsuye Yamada, analyzing their relationship with critiques of white feminism. Both readings can be found in This Bridge Called My Back: Writings by Radical Women of Color, a feminist anthology originally published in 1981. Enjoy!

My latest article—a subjective take on how white-centric narratives affect Romani women's lives, identities, and representation—is now available. The key calls indicate it's time to: 🔹 decolonize funding, shift power dynamics, and redistribute resources to center communities' needs and priorities. 🔹 invest in initiatives led by Romani women, center their voices and experiences. 🔹 include Romani women in the decision-making body of philanthropic foundations and on the board of grant-makers and donors. 🔹 create access to mainstream spaces for Romani women and meaningfully involve them in decision-making without tokenizing them. 🔹 allocate specific funds to Romani women and ensure the inclusion of Romani organizations and professionals in Roma-targeted grants. 🔹 implement participatory grantmaking with Romani women and create grants for their cause. Thank you, Romnja Feminist Library #RomaniWomen #Representation #Inclusion

A recent study published in Human Resource Management (HRM) examined how subsidiaries of multinational enterprises (MNEs) manage the tension between a host country context characterised by religious dogma and unsupportive laws, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) policies mandated by their headquarters. The study introduces the concept of covert allyship and provides implications for human resource management in MNEs.

NEW in CASBS's partnership with La Vie des idées & its English language site, Books & Ideas: A review of "Sphères d’injustice" by Bruno Perreau, who worked on the book during his 2019-20 CASBS fellowship year The book’s strength, according to Benjamin Boudou, is "its ability to tie [a number of cross-disciplinary threads] together coherently, and to form a clear argument against the reactionary nonsense that imagines the tyranny of minorities, wokism, deconstruction or intersectionality as the end of democracy, the republic, the Enlightenment or Western civilization."
