one of the big tricks that i discovered had been pulled on me was the trick of getting me to believe that there was such a thing as a \u201cFeminist Movement.\u201d there\u2019s not. but i thought there was. and being a believer and student of \u2018movements\u2019\u2013what are they, how are they made, where they come from\u2013i sit back now, and am sort of amused by my naivete. i actually believed that just because people *called* themselves feminists, that must mean there *is* a Feminist Movement of some sort.<\/p>\n

…<\/p>\n

never belonged to a Feminist Movement, i belonged to a movement led and created and owned by *radicalized* women of color. Those women of color are, were and will always *remain* accountable to other women of color, whether those women are radicalized or not. I belong to a movement started by Gloria Anzaldua, Cherrie Moraga, Audre Lorde, and sustained by Incite! Women of Color Against Violence, Sista II Sista, the Zapatistas, UBUNTU, SPEAK, the AMC and so so so so many others. There is a melding of action with theory\u2013a connection between the streets and academia.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
