reviewed Colonize This!: Young Women of Color on Today's Feminism on August 07, 2007 Colonize This!
This is one of my favorites. I have read it a few times, but it never stops me from reading it again. Colonize This! is a collection of essays by young woman of color writing about their experiences. Identity is much more complicated then male/female when you live in a society in which you are not a part of the dominant culture.
Often I feel silenced in Japan for being a woman, and more specifically being a woman of color. Not so much by Japanese people, but by the other foreigners who live in Japan. How can I define myself, if I am constantly told it's against "Japanese culture" to do so. This book offers me comfort and support in a place where I find little. I am a woman of color and I am proud of it! I am not alone. The eyes in which I see the world cannot be explained, only experienced. Highly recommended for any woman of color and anyone else who knows what it's like to not quite "fit".
