| What would it take to end violence against Women of Color? How does the mainstream antiviolence movement help? How does it hinder? It's important to reconsider a reliance on the criminal justice system for solving womens struggles with domestic violence; to acknowledge how militarism subjects women to extreme levels of violence perpetrated from within, and without, their communities; to recognize how the medical establishment inflicts violence - such as involuntary sterilization and inadequate health care - on women of color; to devise new strategies for cross-cultural dialogue, theorizing, and alliance building. "INCITE! Women of Color Against Violence" was born in 2000, when more than two thousand dedicated activists from diverse communities came together to end the war being waged on women of color in the US and around the world. "Color of Violence: The INCITE! Anthology" presents the writing of 32 authors who not only shift the focus from domestic violence and sexual assault, but also map innovative strategies of movement building and resistance used by Women of Color around the world. | |
