Description
I. CONFRONTING OBSTACLES I begin my remarks here today by assuming that someone else in this symposium has affirmed the positive role played by the feminist law journal, as a material byproduct of the women's movement in academia, in shaping the discipline of feminist legal theory, its methodology, visions, and goals. Yet, the symposium organizers asked us to consider whether there are obstacles that stand in the way of this significant role for the feminist review. I find it ironic that this question has been posed to someone like me who views herself as a wounded feminist scholar--wounded by the system of white male supremacy in legal education, but even more so wounded by my own past internalized attitudes (1) of resistance to my spint (2) as a critical Latina, lesbian, and feminist scholar.
