Triple Oppression Article

I chose this Article because it relates to how feminism comes is many different varieties. It lends itself to intersectionality and how women that are of color live a very different feminist world than white women. It is easy to see these differences and respect them if you know what they are and how they interact with each other. Also it is a way to see how and why lots of women of color don't associate themselves with the feminist movement.

Triple oppression is a theory developed by Claudia Jones. This theory was developed in order to have a better understanding of multiple oppressions that people go through all around the world. It can be seen in the United States, Spanish Speaking countries, and even the mother land of Africa. Triple oppression usually consists of classism, racism, and sexism. It lends itself to intersectionality and how women are often the one's going through these barriers and often all at the same time.

Draft #1

Triple Oppression Triple oppression is a theory development that people can be oppressed by a multitude of categories including class, race, and gender. It also shows how all of these categories intertwine with one another in daily life experiences and different cultures around the world. Triple Oppression was developed by Claudia Jones to help give a better representation to the ever evolving radical working class and black organizations that included black feminism ideology. Although Claudia Jones started this ideology to show the differences in feminism, communism, and world struggles it has expanded of the years to not only include black women, but other minority groups including Asian- American, Naïve American, and Latino. This theory also was developed in order to have a better understanding of multiple oppressions that people go through all around the world by looking in depth at the United States, Spanish Speaking countries, and even parts of Africa. Although Triple oppression usually consists of classism, racism, and sexism, it lends itself to intersectionality and how women are often the one's going through barriers and often all at the same time.
