.For too long feminism has been co-opted by the forces they seek to
dismantle. In this powerful manifesto, Francoise Verges argues that
feminists should no longer be accomplices of capitalism, racism,
colonialism and imperialism: it is time to fight the system that created
the boss, built the prisons and polices women's bodies. A
Decolonial Feminism grapples with the central issues in feminist debates
today: from Eurocentrism and whiteness, to power, inclusion and
exclusion.
Delving into feminist and anti-racist histories,
Verges also assesses contemporary activism, movements and struggles,
including #MeToo and the Women's Strike. Centring anti-colonialism
and anti-racism within an intersectional Marxist feminism, the book puts
forward an urgent demand to free ourselves from the capitalist,
imperialist forces that oppress us.
