Indeed our fates are inextricably tied and the sooner we realise that we are interdependent the better and that progress comes from both sides working together. Let's hope 2011 bears fruit in that regard :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07999975598314428644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659757082629783950.post-25784772360354554752010-12-24T23:20:22.331+02:002010-12-24T23:20:22.331+02:00Bummer, I've signed up for the FT but always h...Bummer, I've signed up for the FT but always have problems logging in. If you can copy and paste chimamanda's article into an email to me would be much appreciated. <br />This post made me think of very many things, Farai's article was shocking, makes one feel hopeless. Porter's speech, I've watched four times this week, and it gives me hope.<br /><br />"There has to be a way for men and women to share power and not for it to have to be a tug-of-war with one side with more clout than the other"<br />What's maddening is that women are trying to get their fair share, not more, but equal is often perceived as trying to get more. it's a conversation killer to mention some of the inequalities very much present still.<br />there are wonderful men like porter out there that see that 'women's liberation is tied with men's liberation' but a vast majority defend male hegemony because directly or indirectly it benefits them. And that's a disservice to humanity.<br /><br />okay, gonna try be jolly too now ;o)<br /><br />Merry Christmas dear!Ms Afropolitanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456916593005915089noreply@blogger.com
