Title: Inessential Woman
First published: 1988
Description: "Throughout history, western philosophers have buried women's characters under the category of man's nature. Feminist theorists, in responding to this exclusion, have often been guilty of exclusion themselves -- focusing only on white, middle-class women and treating others as inessential. Inessential Women is an eloquent argument against white, middle-class bias in feminist theory. It warns against trying to separate feminist thinking and politics from issues of race and class, and challenges the assumption of homogeneity that underlies much of feminist thought."--Back cover.
