Julia Serano: Excluded: Making Feminist and Queer Movements More Inclusive

Excluded: Making Feminist and Queer Movements More Inclusive


Description

While many feminist and queer movements are designed to challenge sexism, they often simultaneously police gender and sexuality--sometimes just as fiercely as the straight, male-centric mainstream does. Among LGBTQ activists, there is a long history of lesbians and gay men dismissing bisexuals, transgender people, and other gender and sexual minorities. In each case, exclusion is based on the premise that certain ways of being gendered or sexual are more legitimate, natural, or righteous than others. As a trans woman, bisexual, and femme activist, Julia Serano has spent much of the last ten years challenging various forms of exclusion within feminist and queer/LGBTQ movements. In Excluded, she chronicles many of these instances of exclusion and argues that marginalizing others often stems from a handful of assumptions that are routinely made about gender and sexuality. These false assumptions infect theories, activism, organizations, and communities--and worse, they enable people to vigorously protest certain forms of sexism while simultaneously ignoring and even perpetuating others. Serano advocates for a new approach to fighting sexism that avoids these pitfalls and offers new ways of thinking about gender, sexuality, and sexism that foster inclusivity rather than exclusivity.

In "A View from the Bridge", 1955 uraufgeführt (seine endgültige Fassung fand das Drama ein Jahr später in einer Inszenierung von Peter Brook), dramatisiert Arthur Miller eine Geschichte, die er einem New Yorker Hafenarbeiter verdankt und in der Excluded: Making Feminist and Queer Movements More Inclusive download PDF es um den Verrat eines italienischen Einwanderers an zwei illegal eingewanderten Verwandten geht. An dieser Geschichte faszinierte Miller besonders das, wie er es nannte, mythische Element. Die "Brücke" des Titels ist die Brooklyn Bridge, die den auf Long Island gelegenen Stadtteil Brooklyn mit der Südspitze Manhattans verbindet. Das Stück war Vorlage für Filme von Luchino Visconti ("Rocco und seine Brüder") und Sidney Lumet; Dustin Hoffman spielte in einer New Yorker Inszenierung 1965 mit, Scarlett Johannson 2009.
