The
liberation of women and all oppressed minorities can not be done
without collaborated unity between both fronts. What must be
highlighted, for the purpose of future progress, is the position in
which women and oppressed minorities have been subjected to, and this
fundamental issue must never be forgotten, it must be made forever
evident to all in order to fight against it.
Liberation
of women: Women have been subjected to, for centuries, living under a
patriarchal society in which where their existence holds less
importance and lower status than that of men. Women's liberation is
guided by the platform of feminism, being it is the best philosophy
to advance women to the equal statues of men. The issue with none
feminists is their inability of seeing the patriarchal society as a
real thing, along with the inability of seeing sexism present in
society, be it systemic sexism or cultural sexism. There is a long
history of oppression against women, without question, however it is
still present today with the treatment of women vs the treatment of
men.
Liberation
of minorities: Native Americans, African Americans, Latin Americans,
etc. All these minorities have fallen to oppression from the system.
Being the historical context of slavery, genocide, war, etc. or
today's under the radar racism that treats them as second class
citizens. The issue for white Americans is the ability to see racism
when it's most present in society, for most white Americans it's none
existent, same for sexism. However it is there, for it is evident the
double standards of how we view these minorities vs how we view the
white majority. Be it that or the issue of the rule of law applying
equally to all, which is does not.
Marxist
conclusion: The liberation of women and oppressed minorities can only
come through armed struggle with the destruction of the capitalist
state. For through analysis we have found capitalism has close
connections to racism and sexism, for it is used to divide the
working class and profit greatly off their suffering and submission.
This is why the liberation of women and oppressed minorities is an
important step for worker liberation as a whole.
In
order to fight oppression, to push for liberation, what must be made
clear is to never become your enemy. To push for the destruction of
oppression through unity of all oppressed. If you feel you should
attack or oppress a minority group, such as trans, genderfluid,
asexual, bi, gay, etc. You're being guided by unregulated hate
powered by fear, ignorance and misunderstanding. Attacking your
fellow comrades makes you a reactionary enemy against the cause for
worker liberation as a whole, and only helps strengthen the grip the
oppressors have on the working class as a whole. For you can not be
anti-oppression if you in turn make yourself an oppressor, unity and
suppression of the oppressors is the stance of a movement who is
anti-oppression.
The
liberation of women and oppressed minorities are a revolutionary
necessity in order to bring in a establishment devoted to the
proletariat. For if it wasn't it would be a reactionary and misguided
movement stuck to the notion of ignoring oppression.
