AP African American Studies [POWERPOINT]- Topic 4.14: Interlocking Systems of Oppression
This PowerPoint examines the concept of "interlocking systems of oppression" and its roots in Black feminist activism. Explore how Patricia Hill Collins and earlier Black feminist thinkers challenged singular approaches to race, gender, and class. Analyze how writers like Gwendolyn Brooks and Audre Lorde depicted the lived experiences of Black individuals navigating overlapping forms of discrimination. Students will assess how literature, such asĀ Maud Martha, reveals the struggles and resilience of African Americans facing systemic inequality.
