Coloniality and Gender - Week 2 Lecture GEND2001: Decolonizing Gender

Did colonialism create gender categories? Does this explain why some men of color and white feminists are often indifferent to the oppressions faced by women of color?
This lecture for GEND2001: De-colonising Gender discusses Maria Lugones' theory of the coloniality of gender. We cover concepts such as "intersectionality" and "coloniality of power." Students of gender studies, critical race studies, and postcolonial studies will find this lecture useful.
