"It Only Hurts When I Breathe"
It's a line from a Melissa Etheridge song, but I don't think she's thinking what I'm thinking when I go for a run in the cold after emerging from the stairwell in which some inconsiderate troglodyte has been smoking. Again.
When feminism does not explicitly oppose racism, and when antiracism does not incorporate opposition to patriarchy, race and gender politics often end up being antagonistic to each other and both interests lose.
