Series Statement:
Dissident feminisms
Content:
Many advocates of all-black male schools (ABMSs) argue that these institutions counter black boys' racist emasculation in white, 'overly' female classrooms. This argument challenges racism and perpetuates antifeminism. Keisha Lindsay explains the complex politics of ABMSs by situating these schools within broader efforts at neoliberal education reform and within specific conversations about both 'endangered' black males and a 'boy crisis' in education. Lindsay also demonstrates that intersectionality, long considered feminist, is in fact a politically fluid framework. As such, it represents a potent tool for advancing many political agendas, including those of ABMSs supporters who champion antiracist education for black boys while obscuring black girls' own race and gender-based oppression in school.
