Re: Sisterhood references

You could read some work by writers bell hooks, Audre Lorde and Adrienne
Rich.  bell hooks, in particular, argues that the concept of
'sisterhood' is a white middleclass American construct which is based on
the idea of common oppression and thus denies any differences among
women.  She argues that this denial of difference is not useful and
promotes a vision of feminism where difference is embraced (not just
differences among women, but differences among people in general).

Good luck with your research,
Mary Harkin
