Conquest (H.O)

I think violence has always been apart of gender and racial differences. Women of color are put in a dangerous position. Chapter one talks about sexual violence and and how we analyze it. Rape is described as nothing more than a tool of patriarchal control. Sexual violence is also described as a tool of patriarchal and as a tool of colonialism and racism. Racism is not an effect but a tactic in the internal fission of society into binary opposition. Racism is woven into society that is permanent. Sexual violence and genocide among Native Women shows how gender violence functions as a tool for racism and colonialism. African American women as well as immigrant women had a long history of sexual exploitation in the U.S. Sexual violence is a big issue and I don't think Native women, immigrant women, and any women of color is safe and the U.S. is undoubtebly in a permanent social war against the bodies of Native and indigenous women.
