Document Summary
Blue eyed people are better and smarter: why u shaking your head idk what makes u. The blue eyes get extra 5 min on break than so sure you are right idk: brown fountain. Racism affects the work of a person facing these experiences - not being able to give it their all: mood , facial expressions and surpior. And going to drink from a different water thrilled with advantages. I was taught to see racism only in individual acts of meanness, not in invisible systems conferring dominance on my group. Through work to bring materials from women"s studies into the rest of the curriculum, i have often noticed men"s unwillingness to grant that they are overprivileged, even though they may grant that women are disadvantaged. They may say they will work to improve women"s status, in the society, the university, or the curriculum, but they can"t or won"t support the idea of lessening men"s.
