This is an intersting read, as the version I had included a new forward by the author, who was able to revist some of her ideas. At the time of its original publication, Wallace received a lot of flack for her theories/views, and she admits in the forward that as time as passes (older, perhaps wiser), her views have changed, but not so radically that she no longer believes in the core of this work.
I think this book begins to scratch at larger conversations about relationships and community. Too often, the language around oppression in communities of color pits male against female, as if there is a contest about how gets screwed over the most. In some ways, this starts to look at the effects of oppressions on the whole--how racism is tied to gender bias, how gender bias feeds into racism, etc. ...less

"A difficult read, as philosphy often is, but this is an interesting argument about the role and structure of democratic society that uses interesting source material.
